ABSTRACT:
Superconductive oxide bodies such as wires, ribbons, rods, and other bulk bodies can be fabricated by a process that comprises melting precursor material, cooling at least of the melt such that a solid body of a desired shape results, and heat treating the solid body in an oxygen-containing atmosphere. The precursor material exemplarily is in the form of pressed superconductive oxide powder. The re-solidified superconductive material is relatively dense, typically textured, with relatively large grain size, and has improved properties, e.g., higher critical current density. An exemplary technique for melting of the precursor material is zone melting.
