Abstract: | We investigated the superconducting critical temperature, the intra- and intergranular critical current density, and the thermopower properties of Bi1.7Pb0.4Sr1.5Ca2.5Cu3.6O x /(LiCl) y samples. All these properties have been compared with those of Bi1.7Pb0.4Sr1.5Ca2.5Cu3.6O x /(LiF) y specimens. It was found that the critical temperature determined from resistive and AC complex susceptibility measurements show a maximum and the transition width shows a minimum for the intermediate values of y. Powder X-ray diffraction studies and the AC complex susceptibility measurements reveal that in our samples the amount of Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 + δ high-temperature superconducting phase is maximum for y ≈ 0.02. The amount of LiCl in Bi1.7Pb0.4Sr1.5Ca2.5Cu3.6O x /(LiCl) y changes the superconducting properties of the grains as well as of the intergrain matrix. The splitting of the peak in the temperature dependence of the imaginary part of the complex susceptibility, corresponding to the dissipation inside the grains, was also observed. |
