ABSTRACT:
The present invention is aimed to provide a means for manufacturing a RE123 system oxide superconductor showing good superconductivity characteristics under atmospheric ambiance. In a method of manufacturing a RE123 system oxide superconductor by melting, cooling and solidifying material including rare-earth elements and a Ba--Cu--O solvent for crystallization such as by the crystal pulling method, examining beforehand the relationship between the melted material composition and the equilibrium liquid-phase composition and the crystal composition of the RE123 system oxide superconductor formed therefrom in atmospheric ambiance, and based on the result of said examination, adjusting the average composition of the material or the composition of the solvent (for example, setting the average composition of the material to an area where the superconductivity phase and the liquid phase coexist in equilibrium, and at the same time adjust the "Ba/Cu" ratio of the melted material to 3/5-1/1, or adjust the "Ba/Cu" ratio of the solvent inside the crystal pulling crucible to 3/5-1/1), in order to control the amount of mutual substitution between RE and Ba (control the value of x in RE123 system superconductor RE.sub.1+x Ba.sub.2-x Cu.sub.3 O.sub.7-d to 0-0.05 and the like) for crystallization.
