Effect of nano-Ag addition on the superconducting properties of MWCNT doped magnesium diboride superconductor
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2024

Bulk MgB2 superconductor added with nano silver (Ag), multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and both the added (i.e., nano-Ag and MWCNT) samples were synthesized. The influence of nano-Ag and MWCNT addition on the structural and superconducting properties were studied. The XRD analysis confirms the formation of hexagonal MgB2 superconductor. Microstructural studies of all the synthesized samples are carried out by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The superconducting properties such as critical temperature (Tc), magnetic critical current density (Jc), irreversibility field (Birr) and flux pinning properties of all the synthesized samples were investigated at 10 K and field up to 7 T. Nano Ag added MWCNT doped MgB2 shows maximum enhancement in the critical current density i.e., 5.83 × 104 A/cm2 at 5 T and 10 K.
