X-ray diffraction study of texture in melt-processed Gd-123 as a function of 211 concentration

摘要

The texture in the melt-processed GdBCO superconductor is studied as a function of Gd_2BaCuO_5 additions, using a texture goniometer. A systematic variation observed in the background intensity is connected to the microstructural variations and the powder x-ray diffraction spectra.
