Weak-field magnetization of superconducting Y1Ba2Cu3O(x) - Relationship to microstructureThe granular magnetization model of Finnemore et al. (1987) has been tested on a well-characterized sample of Y1Ba2Cu3Ox. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility is in excellent agreement with the model. In addition, the grain size deduced from the magnetization data (1-2 microns) is in reasonable agreement with direct scanning-electron-microscopy measurements of the microstructure.
