High energy milling of MgB2 pre-reacted powder renders the material largely amorphous through extreme mechanical deformation and is suitable for mechanically alloying MgB2 with dopants including carbon. Bulk samples of milled C and MgB2…
We succeeded in the synthesis of high-Jc MgB2 bulks via high energy ball-milling of elemental Mg and B powder at ambient temperatures. Alternatively to longtime mechanical alloying technique, the mixed powder was ball-milled for only 1h and…
In this paper, we reported the structural properties and superconductivity of Mg(B1-xCx)2 compounds. Powder x-ray diffraction results indicate that the samples crystallize in a hexagonal AlB2-type structure. Due to the chemical activity of…
Neutron powder diffraction has been used to characterize a sample of C-substituted MgB2 synthesized from Mg and B4C (with isotopically enriched 11B). The sample is multiphase, with the major phase [73.4(1) wt.%] being Mg(B1-xCx)2 with…
Carbon-substituted MgB2 single crystals, Mg(B_1-xC_x)_2 of 0.3-1.0 mm size were grown for x=0.02-0.15 by a high-pressure technique. The doping dependence of lattice constants studied in a range of x=0.0-0.2 shows a monotonic decrease in a,…
Single crystals of MgB2 and Mg(B1-xCx)2 have been grown using cubic anvil technique. Tc values vary in a wide range (39-9 K) with carbon content varying from 0 up to 16%. Using SiC as the precursor leads to C and not to Si substituted…
The MgB2 bulks were prepared by high energy milling of Mg and B powder. The correlations among milling times, microstructure and superconducting properties were investigated in MgB2 bulks. Samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction…
The upper critical field, $H_{c2}$, of Mg(B$_{1-x}$C$_x$)$_2$ has been measured in order to probe the maximum magnetic field range for superconductivity that can be attained by C doping. Carbon doped boron filaments are prepared by CVD…
We report the preparation of Mg$_{1-x}$B$_{2}$ (0$\le$x$\le$0.5) compounds with the nominal compositions. Single phase MgB$_{2}$ was obtained for x=0 sample. For 0$<$x$\le$0.5, MgB$_{4}$ coexists with "MgB$_{2}$" and the amount of MgB$_{4}$…
We have successfully prepared the MgB2 superconducting bulk and powdered materials by the method of combustion synthesis. The starting materials used in this study were powders of Mg and B. X-ray powder diffraction pattern was well assigned…
The MgB2 - based material high-pressure synthesized at 2 GPa and 800 C for 1 h from Mg and B (taken in the stoichiometry ratio of MgB2) with addition of 2-10 wt% of Ti demonstrated the critical current density (jc) higher than 100 kA/cm^2…
We present details of synthesis optimization and physical properties of nearly single phase carbon doped MgB2 with a nominal stoichiometry of Mg(B{0.8}C{0.2})2 synthesized from magnesium and boron carbide (B4C) as starting materials. The…
Sintered powders and wires of superconducting $MgB_2$ have been fabricated under a variety of conditions in order to determine details of the diffusion of the $Mg$ into $B$ and to study the types of defects that arise during growth. For…
A new method for preparation of single crystals of the superconducting intermetallic MgB2 compound from a Mg-Cu-B melt flux is presented. The high vapour pressure of Mg at elevated temperature is a serious challenge of the preparation…
The existence of two phases within one and the same hexagonal lattice of MgB2 compound, differing in Mg and B (in the homogeneity region) and especially in impurity oxygen content, as well as in microstructure, is demonstrated by various…
We report on the results of a comparative investigation of highly dense bulk MgB$_2$ samples prepared by three methods: (i) hot deformation; (ii) high pressure sintering; and (iii) mechanical alloying of Mg and B powders with subsequent hot…
The system MgxB2 has been investigated to investigate possible nonstoichiometry in MgB2. When synthesized at 850oC, MgB2 is a line compound with a possible Mg vacancy content of about 1%. Small changes in lattice constants as a function of…
Dense pure and doped (Mg1-xAx)B2 samples with A = Na, Ca, Cu, Ag, Zn and Al were synthesized at high pressure - high temperature in a multi anvils press (3.5-6 GPa, 900-1000C) for x up to 0.20. They were studied by x-ray diffraction,…
We have studied the changes in the electronic structure and the superconducting transition temperature T_c of Mg(B_{1-x}C_{x})_{2} alloys as a function of x with 0\leq x\leq 0.3. Our density-functional-based approach uses coherent-potential…
Formation of MgB2 by reactions of Mg with B6Si and Mg with B were compared, the former also producing Mg2Si as a major product. Compared to the binary system, the ternary reactions for identical time and temperature were more complete at…
