Thermal treatment method was employed to produce YBa2Cu3Ox superconductor ceramic. The effects of calcination temperature at 850 °C, set A, and 910 °C, set B, for 24 h followed by sintering at 930, 950 and 980 °C, were investigate using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and...
