The effect of nano-sized Co3O4 (10 - 30 nm) addition on YBa2Cu3O7−δ(Co3O4)x with x = 0 to 0.12 wt.% has been investigated by powder X-ray diffraction method, dc electrical resistance measurements and scanning electron microscopy. The Co3O4 particle size was larger than the coherence length but small...
