摘要
We grew Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy (Bi-2212) single crystals by the modified vertical Bridgman (VB) method, and investigated their characteristics in order to clarify the optimum growth conditions for obtaining high-quality Bi-2212 single crystals. The Bi-2212 single crystals were grown changing pulling rates or using starting materials after pre-treatments. We found that the superconducting critical temperature (T-c) of the single crystal prepared at a slow growth rate of 0.25 mm/h was about 88 K and that the single crystals were a Bi-2212 single phase. Moreover, the single crystals grown using the starting materials pre-treated in Ar and O-2 atmospheres, had the T-c of about 88 and 86 K, respectively. In addition, both of single crystals were Bi-2212 single phase. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
