Abstract
MgB2 bulks were prepared by high-energy milling of Mg and B powders. The correlations between milling times, microstructure and superconducting properties were investigated in MgB2 bulks. The samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the magnetization properties were examined with a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. The investigations showed that high-energy milling is an effective approach for obtaining fine crystalline (40-100nm) bulk MgB 2 with good grain connectivity and high Jc performance. The critical current density reaches 2.0 × 106Acm-2 at 15K and 0.59T, 5.7 × 105Acm-2 at 2T and 3.0 × 104Acm-2 at 5T.
