La
2CuSnO
6, even though it contains CuO
2 layers, does not exhibit superconductivity. It might result from the in-plain Cu-O bond length being too long(about 2.0 Å, compared with 1.9 Å of La
2CuO
4). So, we replaced La with smaller atoms Pr, Nd, Sm, expecting that these might contract the CuO
2 layers and lead to superconductivity. For synthesis we used high pressure(6Gpa for Pr, Nd and 8Gpa for Sm). The result Is that, contrary to our wish, the CuO
2 layers buckled even more seriously and the Cu-O bond did not get shorter. In this paper, we focused on the magnetism of Ln
2CuSnO
6(Ln=La, Pr, Nd). In the temperature range of 150 to 350K, these compounds showed almost the same characteristics which have been explained assuming spin-canted weak ferromagnetism. However, Pr
2CuSnO
6and Nd
2CuSnO
6exhibited ferromagnetic behavior at lower temperature suggesting ordering of the Pr
3+(Nd
3+)moments. Antlferromagnetic coupling between the weak ferromagnetic CuO
2 layers and the ferromagnetic LnO layers has also been suggested.

The role of Ag sheath on the formation of a 2223 phase in Ag-sheathed Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu oxide tapes was investigated. It was found that the Ag sheath promoted the formation of the 2223 phase through the extension of the temperature range between its partial melting and decomposition as well as through the ease of the control of the atomosphere in the Ag sheath. Furthermore, the Ag sheath was recognized to act as an effective substrate for the formation of the well-developed texture structure.

0 and B

inter is intergrain magnetic-flux density. Full-penetration field H
p and remnant-magnetization saturating field H
6 are measured directly from the magnetization hysteresis and the remnant-magnetization curve of the sample, respectively. The model parameters J

p and H
s into critical-state equations. A critical current density measured by four-probe method is averaged one of local J
ct over the sample exposed to self magnetic field generated by applied current, and increases with decreasing the cross-sectional area of the sample, while the intrinsic property of local J
ct can be estimated by the method proposed in this work.

We modified the Bean critical-state model by taking into consideration the surface barrier and the lower critical field of type-II superconductors. In the framework of this modified Bean critical-state model, we have calculated the initial magnetization curves and full hysteresis loops for an infinitely long cylinder immersed in an external ac field superimposed on a dc bias field. Through the computed M(H) curves, we give some discussion on the effect of A H and H
c1 to the initial magnetization and the temperature dependence of hysteresis loops of type-II superconductors.

A study on connecting superconductors of Y system 123 phase through the laser irradiation treatment has been conducted. Superconductive powder of the identical phase pasted with a mixture of organic binder and solvent were filled as a medium between the two pieces of the superconductive bulk installed on a jig system, and which were set on a X-Y table to be irradiated by CO
2 laser accompanied by oxygen gas blow along its contact line under the conditions : laser output power 260-320 W at defocus distance of focal point 120 mm, assist gas pressure 98-294 kPa, beam scan speed 1-8 mm/min, and beam scan times 1-3 strokes.
The results indicated that the electric resistance was almost constant before the laser irradiation but 57.9 K as Tc
(and) was obtained for the certain samples when blown with a great deal of oxygen gas at low speed beam scans at the laser irradiation. SEM image and EPMA mapping after the laser irradiation showed that the superconductive bulk and the paste were connected successfully.

On the sintered 12.5 percent chromium-iron magnetic alloy added Fe-P powder from 0.4 to 1.2 percent, the change in the magnetic properties with the sintering time at 1200°C was mainly studied in making use of the EPMA mapping analysis . After sintering for 1 hour, DC and AC magnetic properties come to the maximum value by the addition of 0.6 and 0.8 percent Fe-P respectively. The sintered density increases with the increasing of sintering time and DC magnetic properties increase monotonously in the same way. However, AC magnetic properties show a specific inclination to firstly increase and then decrease with sintering time. It was comfirmed by the EPMA mapping analysis that these changes in the magnetic properties originate from the phenomena of the liquid phase sintering, the solid solution of P and its remaining at the grain boundaries caused by Fe-P addition of over 0.8 percent.

In recent years, ceramics for a few mechanical and electronic parts are performed on the cutting process of the green-compact. The residual crack on the finished surface is influenced the strength of the ceramics after the sintering. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the cutting performance of the ceramics green compact that used the alumina of the grain size 0.2 μ m. The machining performance of alumina green-compact is discussed from view point of the relation between the shape of tool edge and the surface roughness on the workpiece. In the cutting test by turning, the cutting condition is cutting speed 100m/min, feed 0.1mm/rev, depth of cut 0.2mm. The tool shape on the insert tip are made chamfer angle from -25°to 5° The main results obtained are follows:(1) The surface roughness in feed direction and the in circumference direction was existed an correlative. (2)In the chamfer angle -10°on the tool edge, the surface roughness at cutting could give rise to Rmax 4.0 μm. (3)The tool life of this cutting was lager than other cutting.

The intermetallic compound Nb

In the present study, we have made shock-consolidation experiments on Nb-20at. %Al alloy powders, which is produced by mechanical alloying of elemental powders, with the use of a single-stage propellant gun as a function of projectile velocity in the range of 0.75-1.49km/s. The density of compacts increases with increasing projectile velocty and saturates to a value of 7.25 Mg/m
3 when the velocity exceeds 1.16km/s. X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that the compound Nb
3Al is formed for projectile velocities greater than 1.16km/s. Very fine microstructures with grain size of 10-200nm as well as high hardness values are observed on compacts consolidated with these projectile velocities.

Pure aluminum matrix composites reinforced with SiC particles were fabricated by powder metallurgy, which involves hot pressing. Effects of particles volume on hardness and wear resistance of composites were investigated. Hardness of composites proportionally increased with increasing volume fraction of particles and 30%SiCp/Al composite has maximum hardness and its hardness is 2.7 times greater than that of pure aluminum. Increasing the volume fraction of reinforcements was remarkably efficient for wearing at low and middle sliding speed. Wear surface observation shows that adhesive and abrasive wear occurred at low and middle sliding speed, and melt and seizure wear took place at high sliding speed.
