ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing the oxide superconductor according to the present invention comprises the steps of: mixing a starting material including Bi, Sr, Ca and Cu such that a mole ratio of Bi, Sr, Ca and Cu is 2:2+a:1+b:2+c, wherein a.gtoreq.0, b.gtoreq.0, c.gtoreq.0, and 0<a+b+c<3; melting the mixed material at a temperature of 900.degree. C.-1500.degree. C.; quenching rapidly the molten material; and annealing the quenched material at a partial molten temperature of 800.degree. C.-1000.degree. C. This method gives product wherein a precipitate of at least one compound in the group SrO, CuO and (Ca.sub.1-x Sr.sub.x).sub.2 CuO.sub.3 (wherein 0.gtoreq.x<1) is finely dispersed in the superconducting crystal of Bi.sub.2 Sr.sub.2 Ca.sub.1 Cu.sub.2 O.sub.y (wherein y is about 8). The precipitates act as flux pinning centers.
Further, an oxide superconductor according to the present invention comprises superconducting crystal consisting of Bi, Sr, Ca and Cu oxides and separate oxide phases including Pt as a principal component being finely dispersed in the superconducting crystal. These finely dispersed oxides including Pt act as flux pinning centers.
