Abstract

The characteristic inhomogeneous distribution of nonsuperconducting Y2BaCuO5 (211) inclusions in melt-processed YBa2Cu3O7−δ (123) grains has generally been attributed to 211 particle pushing by 123 growth fronts during peritectic solidification on the basis of reduced total surface free energy. Analysis of the morphology of the interfaces at the 211–211–123 and 211–211-liquid triple points in seeded melt-processed samples invalidates this assumption for the pure YBCO system and has implications of the mechanism of 211 particle segregation.
