Effect of Preparation and Annealing Temperature on the Propertiesof (Hg,Tl)-2223 Superconductor
Main Article Content
Abstract
Samples of superconducting compounds were prepared by a solid-state reaction technique in a sealed quartz tube under normal pressure. The impact of the compound on the electrical properties has been studied using the electrical resistance measurements of the samples as a function of temperature. The obtained results appear that an enhancement in the phase formation, and the superconducting transition temperature Tc were improved. It may be due to the decreasing of the magnetic impurities or the delocalisation of carriers which resulted in the enhancement of the density of mobile carriers in the conducting CuO2 planes.
