Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the title superconducting ceramic material exhibiting superconducting phenomenon at above the temp. of liq. N2 having 77K b.p., enabling the use of an inexpensive cooling medium and easily undergoing temp. control by using a superconducting ceramic material represented by a specified formula, consisting of Sc, Sr, Cu, Ag and O. CONSTITUTION:This superconducting ceramic material is represented by the formula (where 0.5<=x<=0.9, 0.1<=y<=0.6 and alpha<=0.10), causes superconduction transition at 230-80K, drops the resistance to zero and exhibits superconducting phenomenon. In the case of y=0, the ceramic material becomes an insulator. In the case of y>0.6, sintering can not be carried out. Even when a part of Sr is substd. with Ba and/or Ca, in the ceramic material, the superconducting characteristics are not deteriorated.
