Abstract

The effect of temperature during melting of Bi-Sr-Cs-Cu-O in a A12O3 crucible on grain formation was determined. The crucible was used to control the formations of Bi-2212 grains and to stabilize the molten zone. The samples were then characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy. Results showed that at 830 degree, holes were formed, at 870 degree, boundaries by fusing of grains were formed, and at 900 degree, rough and overlapping flakes were formed.
