Improving the connectivity of MgB2 bulk superconductors by a novel liquid phase sintering process

This work investigates a new processing method developed to improve the connectivity of ex-situ MgB2 bulks at low sintering temperatures. Mg additions (1 − 10 wt.%) were mixed to pre-synthesised MgB2 to make composite powders that were sintered at 900 ffiC by the Field Assisted Sintering Technique (FA...
