Loss of superconductivity with the addition of Al to MgB2 and a structural transition in Mg1-x AlxB2.
The basic magnetic and electronic properties of most binary compounds have been well known for decades. The recent discovery of superconductivity at 39 K in the simple binary ceramic compound magnesium diboride, MgB2, was therefore surprising. Indeed, this material has been known and structurally ch...
