Abstract

The application of low temperature ion bombardment and pulsed laser or electron beam irradiation for the production of rapidly quenched superconducting alloys is described and compared with other more conventionally used non-equilibrium techniques. The comparison is based on the identification of the metastable phases produced by their specific electrical and superconducting properties. It is concluded that low temperature heavy ion bombardment is comparable with vapor quenching whereas laser quenching yields results similar to liquid quenching. Finally, the interesting superconducting properties of these rapidly quenched metastable alloys are discussed.
