Description
Summary:Using the combination of standard ceramic processing and an infiltration technique, single domain superconductor foam of Y123 has been prepared. In this report we present magneto-transport measurements of these foams. The investigations reveal superconducting properties being similar to those of bulk melt processed materials. The magnetic hysteresis vs field measurements show a high anisotropy of the critical current density up to Jcab/Jcc7, in good agreement with the observation of a strong texture as determined from neutron diffraction measurements.
