We discuss the important aspects of synthesis and crystal growth of MgB2 under high pressure (P) and temperature (T) in Mg-B-N system, including the optimisation of P-T conditions for reproducible crystal growth, the role of liquid phases in this process, the temperature dependence of crystal size and the effect of growing instabilities on single crystals morphology. Extensive experiments have been carried out on single crystals with slightly different lattice constants and defects concentration, which revealed and possible effects of Mg-deficiency and lattice strain on the superconducting properties of MgB2 (Tc, Jc, residual resistivity ratio, anisotropy etc.).
Here we report the growth of sub-millimeter MgB2 single crystals of various shapes under high pressure in Mg-B-N system. Structure refinement using a single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis gives lattice parameters a=3.0851(5) A and c=3.5201(5) A w
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
We report the effect of annealing on the superconductivity of MgB2 thin films as functions of the postannealing temperature in the range from 700 C to 950 C and of the postannealing time in the range from 30 min to 120 min. On annealing at 900 C for
Orthorhombic (space group: Pnma) Nb2P5 is a high-pressure phase that is quenchable to ambient pressure, which could viewed as the zigzag infinite P chain-inserted NbP2. We report herein the high-pressure crystal growth of Nb2P5 and the discovery of i
We present the crystal structure and low temperature electronic transport properties of the intermetallic commonly known as BeB_2. In contrast to the much simpler AlB_2-type structure of the 39K superconductor MgB_2, BeB_2 forms a complex structure t
