Abstract
Articles comprising a quantity of superconductive oxide material can be fabricated by a process that comprises melting of part of an oxide precursor material, with resultant directional resolidification. Exemplary embodiments comprise zone melting and movement of the hot zone through the precursor material. The method can result in superconductive material having improved properties, e.g., higher critical current, as compared to prior art oxide superconductors.
