Problems solved by technology

At present, the traditional sintering method under the protection of argon atmosphere is widely used, and the annealing time is generally more than ten minutes, but because the argon gas used as the protective atmosphere still contains a considerable amount of oxygen, it may cause Increased MgO content in samples during sintering
In addition, longer annealing time is also easy to cause too much MgB 2 The decomposition of the superconducting core, the thickening of the interface layer between the superconducting core and the casing, and the increase in the degree of oxidation of the superconducting core, etc.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing magnesium diboride superconducting wire or strip by electron beam annealing. The method adopts electron beam to anneal the unphased MgB2 wire or strip precursor prepared by in-situ powder sleeve method in vacuum. Annealing, within the annealing time of several seconds to several minutes, the magnesium-boron mixed powder in the wire or strip precursor undergoes a chemical reaction to finally generate magnesium diboride superconducting wire or strip. Electron beam parameters and annealing time are determined according to different wire or strip precursor thickness and annealing temperature requirements during annealing, and the annealing of different diameter wires or strips is completed by precisely controlling the electron beam acceleration voltage, beam current and annealing time. The magnesium diboride superconducting wire or strip prepared by the invention has stable properties, fine and uniform crystal grains, uniform phase formation, and a transition temperature higher than 37K.

Background technique [0002] Since the discovery of magnesium diboride superconductors with a critical transition temperature of 39K by Akimitsu et al. in Japan in January 2001 (Nature 410 (2001) 63), scientists from various countries have conducted a lot of research on magnesium diboride superconductors. MgB2 superconductors have obvious advantages in the application of 20-30K and low field conditions, and also have broad application prospects in superconducting power and electronic devices. The currently reported preparation methods of MgB2 wire or strip include diffusion method, powder in tube (Powder In Tube) method, and continuous tube fo...
