In this review, we introduce the development of internal Mg diffusion (IMD)-processed MgB 2
superconducting wires. First, a brief history of the IMD method (which has been given …

Rare earth (RE) elements and their compounds have been doped into MgB 2 since the
discovery of the superconductivity of MgB 2. The do** effects of RE elements and RE …

This study aims to investigate the sintering mechanisms of magnesium diborides using
spark plasma sintering and optimize the sintering process conditions. Three different …

Abstract Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) is a promising rapid consolidation technique that
allows a better understanding and optimization of the sintering kinetics and therefore makes …

A superconducting joint of unreacted monofilament internal magnesium diffusion-processed
magnesium diboride (MgB2) wires was fabricated by exploiting the phenomenon of …

Extrinsic two-dimensional flux pinning centers, via graphene-encapsulated boron powder as
precursors, have been introduced into MgB2 superconductors by means of in situ and …

The main purpose of this article is to show an easier and more accurate method for
analyzing high-field pinning centers. Previous methods did not allow for precise analysis …

We report the fabrication of high-performance MgB 2 bulk superconductors doped with
amorphous carbon (aC), derived from PMMA polymer, a safe and cost effective carbon …

Carbon-based organic molecular gas is a well-known chemical agent for controlling
inorganic structures of MgB 2 single-crystal material. The utilization of such a gas can also …

We have analyzed the microstructure of MgB 2 prepared by the modified internal
magnesium diffusion technique resulting in filaments without a central hole. Three different …
