Nonstoichiometry, Defects and Transport Properties in MgB2
Abstract
The local composition Mg:B of MgB2 powder was systematically changed through annealing. Correlations were observed between the Mg loss and the lattice parameters a/c and the microstrain of MgB2. Direct wavelength-dispersive-spectrum and XRD measurements on ceramic samples with different residual resistivity ratios suggested that the transport property of MgB2 might be affected by this Mg-deficiency, but oxygen-related defects may play a more important role.
