Low resistivity MgB2 bulk samples annealed in Mg vapor show an increase in irreversibility field mu(0)H(*)(T) by a factor of similar to2 in both transport and magnetic measurements. The best sample displayed a magnetic irreversibility field mu(0)H(M)(*)>14 T at 4.2 K and similar to6 T at 20 K. These changes were accompanied by an increase of the 40 K resistivity from 1 to 18 muOmega cm and a lowering of the resistivity ratio from 15 to 3, while the critical temperature T-c decreased by only 1-2 K. These results show that systematic processing changes can make MgB2 attractive for magnet applications.

Abstract

Low resistivity MgB2 bulk samples annealed in Mg vapor show an increase in irreversibility field mu(0)H(*)(T) by a factor of similar to2 in both transport and magnetic measurements. The best sample displayed a magnetic irreversibility field mu(0)H(M)(*)>14 T at 4.2 K and similar to6 T at 20 K. These changes were accompanied by an increase of the 40 K resistivity from 1 to 18 muOmega cm and a lowering of the resistivity ratio from 15 to 3, while the critical temperature T-c decreased by only 1-2 K. These results show that systematic processing changes can make MgB2 attractive for magnet applications.
