"Influence of annealing temperature and isostatic pressure on microstru" by Daniel Gajda, Andrzej Zaleski et al.
Here, we report superconducting Mg11B2 wires made by using the internal Mg diffusion technique with isotopic amorphous nano boron (11B) as the precursor material. We show the influence of annealing temperature and isostatic pressure of 0.1 MPa and 1.1 GPa on Mg diffusion into 11B layer, microstructure of superconducting filament, critical current density (Jc) at 20 K and 25 K, critical temperature (Tc) and irreversible magnetic induction (Birr) in mono (single-core) - and multi-filament Mg11B2 wires. Our research shows that thermal treatment at 700 °C and 0.1 MPa for 60 min yields a supercond...
