Chemicals, Gases and Reference Samples
AssemblyOxide and carbonate powders are the precursors for YBa2Cu3O7 and the bismuth cuprates, with magnesium and boron for MgB2. Oxygen and argon supply the furnace and arc-melting atmospheres, liquid nitrogen cools samples, and known superconductors (a YBCO disk, a Bi-2223 bar, niobium, lead) check the measurement setups. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
