Particle size effect on the superconducting properties of YBa2Cu3O7-x particles Blanco-Gutiérrez, Verónica Torralvo Fernández, María Josefa Alario Franco, Miguel Ángel YBCO samples with different microstructures were prepared after the thermal treatment of a precursor previously obtained by autocombustion. A drastic influence of the particle size on the magnetic behavior of the samples was observed. Thus, particles smaller than 110 nm do not exhibit superconducting pro-perties and for those ranging around 200 nm the diamagnetic signal characteristic of the superconduc-tivity at low temperature disappears in a large applied magnetic field. Particles larger than 300 nm do not exhibit the particle size effect. Accompanying such a phenomenon, an increase of the superconducting critical temperature is observed with the augmentation of the particle size, the lowest value being 18 K which corresponds to 110 nm particles. 2024-02-12T10:31:46Z 2024-02-12T10:31:46Z 2017 journal article Blanco-Gutiérrez, V., et al. «Particle Size Effect on the Superconducting Properties of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−x Particles».
