Structure and physical properties of superconducting compounds Y(La)-Ba(Sr)-Cu-O

Abstract

The structure and physical properties of superconducting compounds Y(La)-Ba(Sr)-Cu-O are studied, the compounds being prepared by the method of cryogenic dispersion of a charge consisting of premix oxides and carbonates. Electrical conductivity and critical current density of the superconductors are measured over a wide temperature range of 10~$mK$ to 300~$K$. Degradation of the superconductor critical parameters in time and structural characteristics, magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity and acoustic properties are studied, and current-voltage characteristics are determined.
