Özet
MgB2 samples are produced by ex situ reaction method under vacuum, and various (0, 10, 20 Bar) Ar pressure for 0.5 and 1 h. The effect of ambient pressure and annealing duration on the microstructure and electrical properties of bulk samples are investigated. XRD, SEM, and magnetoresistance measurements are made. The a and c lattice parameters and the grain size values are the highest for the samples produced under vacuum and their values decrease with increasing Ar pressure. Moreover, these values increase when the annealing duration increases from 0.5 to 1 h. The increasing pressure reduces the bond lengths between the atoms thus the grain sizes decrease. Smaller grain size promotes the connection between grains which results in an increase of the critical current density (Jc). SEM micrographs reveal that the produced samples have granular structure which is a characteristic feature of MgB2 …
