In this paper, the CdO nanoparticles were prepared by chemical reduction method. Then, the CdO nanoparticles were doped in the Bi1.64Pb0.36Sr2Ca2-xCdxCu3Oy with  x = 0.0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.1 superconductor.  The samples were synthesized by the standard solid-state reaction technique. The structural properties, microstructure and morphology of the samples have been studied by XRD, SEM a...

Fulx-pinning mechanism and activation energy of MgB2 doped with 10 wt % malic- acid has been investigated by measurement of critical current density and resistivity as a function of magnetic fields and temperatures. The field dependence of the critical current density, Jc(B), was analyzed within the collective pinning model. A crossover field, Bsb, from the single vortex to the small vortex bun...

recent studies in scientific education as well as foreign and second language instruction suggest that thinking has rarely been an integral part of education and training in classroom. some scholars decried the lack of emphasis on thinking in the institutes and schools. they noted that memorization and drills were rewarded,while inquiry, reflection, and consideration of alternatives were frowne...

In this paper, β-PbO nanoparticles were prepared by microwave irradiation. Then, the PbO nanoparticles with size of 32 nm were doped in the Bi2-xPbxSr2Ca2Cu4Oy superconductor with x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6. The samples were synthesized by the standard solid state reaction method. The structural properties, microstructure and morphology of the samples have been studied by XRD and SEM. After synt...

In this paper Sb2O3 nanoparticles are synthesized by solution method. The effect of these nanoparticles on the Bi-2223 superconductor properties has been investigated. The critical temperature, critical current density and activation energy were measured by the standard four-probe method. Magnetic properties of the samples were measured by using the AC magnetic susceptibility. The microstructur...
