Effect of dopant solubility and excess doping on the superconducting properties of doped Nb3Sn prepared by field assisted sintering technique by Srivastava, N, Matthews, GAB, Liu, J, Speller, SC, Grovenor, CRM, Santra, S

“…Meanwhile, excessive Y plays an important role in the formation of additional&nbsp;flux pinning&nbsp;centers. The critical current density (J_c) shows a significant increase for all the Y-doped Nb₃Sn alloys by a factor of 29 % due to the formation of Y₂O₃&nbsp;from the residual Y, which is assumed to serve as additional&nbsp;flux pinning&nbsp;center. …”
