Usually use n 2(n=1,2 ...) on the equally spaced top surface that is placed on the premolding piece of individual seed crystal, keep the c direction of principal axis of seed crystal parallel with the axis of cylindric premolding piece.Fig. 5 has provided when using 4 seed crystals, the 3 kind different arrangement modes of seed crystal on the premolding piece.Shown in Fig. 5 (a) is first kind of arrangement mode, and a axle (or b axle) of seed crystal is random among Fig. 5 (a); Shown in Fig. 5 (b) is second kind of arrangement mode, a axle of 4 seed crystals (or b axle) direction unanimity among Fig. 5 (b), and parallel or vertical with the nearest neighbour seed crystal line of centres; Shown in Fig. 5 (c) is the third arrangement mode, a axle of 4 seed crystals (or b axle) direction unanimity among Fig. 5 (c), but with nearest neighbour seed crystal line of centres angle at 45.
Growth and crystallization shape to the made superconduction piece in the method for the present invention are described as follows:
The premolding piece of placing seed crystal is as shown in Figure 5 put into process furnace, by common melting texture growing art breading.Promptly be rapidly heated to 1040 ℃~1045 ℃, be incubated after 1~2 hour fast cooling to 1012 ℃~1017 ℃, slowly be cooled to 970~985 ℃ with 0.1~1 ℃ speed approximately per hour then, stove is chilled to room temperature subsequently.
The superconduction piece that adopts above-mentioned prepared to go out has surface crystallization pattern shown in Figure 6.Fig. 6 (a) is to use the sample of single seed crystal induced growth, and it is that the center is to extraradial four fan sections that its top surface presents with the seed crystal.The X-ray diffraction result confirms that each sector all is c axle orientation, and is parallel with the symmetry axis of cylindrical sample, and has only very little differential seat angle between the c axle of adjacent sectors.Superconduction piece with this surface growth style has whole C axle orientation, and superconduction circulation can flow in superconduction piece entire scope.This coupling all-in-one-piece superconducting material is called as " single domain " superconducting material.Fig. 6 (b), 6 (c), 6 (d) are to use the sample of four seeded growths, respectively corresponding above-mentioned first, second and third kind arrangement mode of their arrangement mode.Identical with single seed crystal method, all be the single domain of c axle orientation in each seed crystal inductive zone, but adjacent seed crystal induce the interface orientation that forms between the district different.Fig. 6 (b) (corresponding above-mentioned first kind of arrangement mode) does not consider seed crystal a axle and the axial consistence of b, forms random crystal boundary between each seed crystal inductive monodomain region.The a axle and the b direction of principal axis of each seed crystal are parallel to each other among Fig. 6 (c) (the above-mentioned second kind of arrangement mode of correspondence) and 6 (d) (corresponding above-mentioned the third arrangement mode), form (100)/(100) (or (010)/(010)) crystal boundary and (110)/(110) crystal boundary (thick deceiving shown in the interlacing line among the figure) respectively.
X-ray diffraction is the result show: when 1) the premolding piece was single YBCO composition, the sample with Fig. 6 (b) crystallization shape was made up of four monodomain regions, and crystal boundary place dephasign is assembled, and caused non-superconducting to connect or superconduction is weak connects; Upper strata with close seed crystal of sample of Fig. 6 (c) and 6 (d) is four monodomain regions, and middle lower floor is coupled and forms a big monodomain region.2) the premolding piece is when having the multilayered structure of transition layer, sample with Fig. 6 (b) crystallization shape still is made up of four monodomain regions, and under the condition of suitable transition layer composition and thickness, the sample with Fig. 6 (c) and 6 (d) can be coupled into one does not have the weak big monodomain region that is connected of crystal boundary.
Be coupled into the sample of the brilliant method growth of seediness of a big single domain, it is captured flux distribution and demonstrates and same unimodal of the single domain sample of single seed crystal method growth, captures the intensity of field height.The be coupled flux distribution of capturing of sample (upper strata is a multidomain, and middle lower floor is a single domain) of part is a multimodal, and the corresponding seed crystal in each peak is induced the district, captures intensity of field and is lower than complete coupled single domain sample.
Verified, utilize the mixture of YBaCuO and GdBaCuO in the premolding piece, to set up the method growth YBCO superconduction piece of component gradient, can improve the intergranular coupling in the brilliant sample of seediness.By using the GdBaCuO and the YBaCuO powder of different ratios, obtain the continuous premolding piece that descends of peritectoid decomposition temperature from top to bottom, in conjunction with the brilliant a of control seediness, b axle relative orientation, and the coupling of distance and the transition region thickness and the Y-123 crystal grain ab crystal face speed of growth between the seed crystal, the orientation crystal grain that makes the superiors' seed crystal induce nucleation to grow up becomes the big area seed crystal of one deck down, by the transmission between the adjacent layers, obtain the single domain material that does not have non-superconducting to connect.This method has broken through can't the grow obstacle of bigger single domain sample of single seed crystal, can grow the single domain superconducting material in the short period of time.
