Abstract
We have formed BaZrO3 nanoparticles in YBa2Cu3O7âδ second-generation HTS wires through modification of the chemical solution precursor for metal-organic deposition. Transmission-electron microscopy shows the particles to be 10-25 nm in diameter, approximately spherical, and well dispersed through the film. The in-field critical current density is enhanced over a wide angular range compared to undoped wires.
