We address the effect of MgO impurity on the superconducting properties of MgB2. The synthesis of MgB2 is very crucial because of sensitivity of Mg to oxidation which may lead to MgO as a secondary phase. Rietveld refinement was performed to determine the quantitative volume fraction of MgO in the samples synthesized by two different techniques. Both the samples were subjected to magnetization measurements under dc and ac applied magnetic fields and the observed results were compared as a function of temperature. Paramagnetic Meissner effect has been observed in a sample of MgB2 having more amount of MgO (with Tc = 37.1K) whereas the pure sample MgB2 having minor quantity of MgO shows diamagnetic Meissner effect with Tc = 38.8K. M-H measurements at 10K reveal a slight difference in irreversibility field which is due to MgO impurity along with wide transition observed from ac magnetic susceptibility measurements. The magnetotransport measurements R(T)H using RN = 90%, 50% and 10% criterion on pure sample of MgB2 has been used to determine the upper critical field whereas the sample having large quantity of MgO does not allow these measurements due to its high resistance.

This review paper illustrates the main normal and superconducting state properties of magnesium diboride, a material known since early 1950s, but recently discovered to be superconductive at a remarkably high critical temperature Tc=40K for a binary
compound. What makes MgB2 so special? Its high Tc, simple crystal structure, large coherence lengths, high critical current densities and fields, transparency of grain boundaries to current promises that MgB2 will be a good material for both large scale applications and electronic devices. During the last seven month, MgB2 has been fabricated in various forms, bulk, single crystals, thin films, tapes and wires. The largest critical current densities >10MA/cm2 and critical fields 40T are achieved for thin films. The anisotropy ratio inferred from upper critical field measurements is still to be resolved, a wide range of values being reported, between 1.2 and 9. Also there is no consensus about the existence of a single anisotropic or double energy gap. One central issue is whether or not MgB2 represents a new class of superconductors, being the tip of an iceberg who awaits to be discovered. Up to date MgB2 holds the record of the highest Tc in its class. However, the discovery of superconductivity in MgB2 revived the interest in non-oxides and initiated a search for superconductivity in related materials, several compounds being already announced to become superconductive: TaB2, BeB2.75, C-S composites, and the elemental B under pressure.
We fabricated superconducting MgB2 thin films on (001) MgO substrates. The samples were prepared by magnetron rf and dc co-sputtering on heated substrates. They were annealed ex-situ for one hour at temperatures between 450{deg}C and 750{deg}C. We wi
ll show that the substrate temperature during the sputtering process and the post annealing temperatures play a crucial role in forming MgB2 superconducting thin films. We achieved a critical onset temperature of 27.1K for a film thickness of 30nm. The crystal structures were measured by x-ray diffraction.
In-plane electrical transport properties of MgB2 single crystals grown under high pressure of 4-6 GPa and temperature of 1400-1700oC in Mg-B-N system have been measured. For all specimens we found sharp superconducting transition around 38.1-38.3K wi
th transition width within 0.2-0.3K. Estimated resistivity value at 40K is about 1 mkOhmcm and resistivity ratio R(273K)/R(40K) of about 4.9. Results of measurements in magnetic field up to 5.5T perpendicular to Mg and B planes and up to 9T in parallel orientation show temperature dependent anisotropy of the upper critical field with anisotropy ratio increasing from 2.2 close to Tc up to about 3 below 30K. Strong deviation of the angular dependence of Hc2 from anisotropic mass model has been also found.
Iron is an important sheath material for fabrication of MgB2 wires. However, the effect of Fe doping on the superconducting properties of MgB2 remains controversial. In this work, we present results of nano-scale Fe particle doping in to MgB2. The Fe
doping experiments were performed using both bulk and thin film form. It was found that Fe doping did not affect the lattice parameters of MgB2, as evidenced by the lack of change in the XRD peak positions for MgB2. Because of the high reactivity of nano-scale Fe particles, Fe doping is largely in the form of FeB at low doping level while Fe2B was detected at 10wt% doping by both XRD and TEM. There is no evidence for Fe substitution for Mg. The transition temperature decreased modestly with increasing Fe doping levels. The Jc(H) performance was severely depressed at above 3wt% doping level. The detrimental effect of nano-scale Fe doping on both Tc and Jc(H) is attributable to the grain decoupling as a result of magnetic scattering of Fe-containing dopants at grain boundaries.
We report the preparation of Mg$_{1-x}$B$_{2}$ (0$le$x$le$0.5) compounds with the nominal compositions. Single phase MgB$_{2}$ was obtained for x=0 sample. For 0$<$x$le$0.5, MgB$_{4}$ coexists with MgB$_{2}$ and the amount of MgB$_{4}$ increases with
x. With the increase of x, the lattice parameter ${it c}$ of MgB$_{2}$ increases and the lattice parameter ${it a}$ decreases, correspondingly T$_{c}$ of Mg$_{1-x}$B$_{2}$ decreases. The results were discussed in terms of the presence of Mg vacancies or B interstitials in the MgB$_{2}$ structure. This work is helpful to the understanding of the MgB$_{2}$ films with different T$_{c}$, as well as the Mg site doping effect for MgB$_{2}$.
