Abstract
Polycrystalline samples of Bi1.84Pb0.34Sr1.91Ca2.03Cu3.06O10+x((Bi, Pb)-2223) with Tc(R = 0) = 112 K have been irradiated by a particles of 40 MeV energy up to a maximum dose of 1.5 × 1016 α/cm2. Tc is observed to decrease with increasing dose. At the highest dose, semiconducting behavior is observed in resistivity measurements, and X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy indicate partial amorphization. Tc has not been recovered by annealing. The possible mechanism of radiation damage in (Bi, Pb)-2223 is discussed; it appears to be different from the mechanism in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x (Bi-2212).
