Enhancement of critical current density for MgB2 prepared using carbon-encapsulated boron with co-addition of Dy2O3 and La2O3
In this work, magnesium diboride, MgB2 samples were prepared by using magnesium, Mg powder and carbon-encapsulated boron, B powder (1.35 wt% carbon) with addition of dysprosium oxide, Dy2O3 and lanthanum oxide, La2O3 as dopants. Different weight percentages with the ratio of x wt.% Dy2O3: x wt.% La2...
