Design and characterisation of ex-situ bulk MgB2 superconductors containing a nanoscale dispersion of artificial pinning centres

MgB2 pellets containing a nanoscale dispersion of artificial pinning centres have been successfully manufactured through a powder metallurgy route based on the oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) concept more usually used for steels and superalloys. Commercial MgB2 powder and Y2O3 nano-powder were m...
