摘要
The pseudo-binary NdBa2Cu3Ox-Ba3Cu10O13 phase diagrams and the crystallization of NdBa2Cu3Ox have been in situ observed using high-temperature optical microscope under three different oxygen atmospheres namely 1%, 0.1% and 0.0097% oxygen in argon. It has been observed that the liquidus line becomes narrower both in composition and temperature with decreasing oxygen pressure. This result suggested that under reduced oxygen atmosphere, the NdBa2Cu3Ox crystals could only be grown from a peritectic melt consisting of Nd4Ba2Cu2O10 and liquid. The crystallization temperature of NdBa2Cu3Ox was found to decrease logarithmically with decreasing oxygen content in the atmosphere. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
