Özet

Bi-2212 superconducting whiskers have been fabricated by annealing a melt-quenched precursor using suitable heat-treatment cycles for Bi3+x Sr2Ca2Cu3O8+delta where x=1 and 2. Approximately 1-3 mm long whiskers were fabricated for x=1 and x=2 and their physical, electrical and magnetic properties were investigated. Crystallization activation energies of the materials were calculated according to Kissinger and Augis-Bennet method using the DTA data. Microstructural changes from glass to heat-treated glass-ceramic materials at different temperatures were investigated with SEM, EDX and XRD analyses. It was observed that the structure of the whiskers has high c-axis oriented single-crystalline Bi-2212 phase. The whiskers fabricated for x=1 and 2 showed very smooth surface without cracks and dislocations. T (c) of the whiskers for x=1 and 2 were obtained to be 83.2 K and 79.8 K respectively. The change of magnetization with applied magnetic fields (M-H) was investigated at three different temperatures, 10, 20 and 40 K, and J (c mag) was determined using the Bean model.
