Summary

THESE CERAMICS OF TYPICAL CATION COMPOSITION PRESINTERED AT 1,073 K (800 DEG C), ARE FORMED BY ARC MELTING AND RAPIDLY COOLING THE 2021 SUPERCONDUCTING PHASE, COPPER OXIDE, AND CALCIUM OXIDE. THE ARC-MELTED SAMPLES SINTERED IN AIR AT 1,113 K (840 DEG C) EXHIBIT A SOLID-STATE STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATION AND A MIXTURE OF 2122 AND 2223 SUPERCONDUCTING PHASES. WHEN THE ARC MELTING IS USED A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN DENSITY (FROM 3.7 TO 5.7G/CM3 ) AND IN CRITICAL CURRENT DENSITY (FROM 28 TO 60 A/CM2 IN ZERO FIELD AND AT 77 K) IS OBSERVED, WHILE THE CRITICAL TEMPERATURE REMAINS UNCHANGED.
