Abstract

Results are reported for short samples of BSCCO-2212 conductor made by a dip-coat process. Samples were characterized by XRD, optical microscopy, SEM and transport critical current measurements. Critical currents of up to 14 amperes were measured in 5 mm wide tapes immersed in liquid nitrogen in zero applied magnetic field, with corresponding overall critical current densities at 77K, 0T of up to 2,700 A/cm/sup 2/.<>
