We investigated on microstructure and superconducting properties of high-density MgB2superconductors synthesized by a heat-treatment method combining a short period of sintering at 1100°C with a following annealing at a low temperature. The two-step sintering method was found to achieve a coexistence of a high density and broadened XRD full width at half maximum (FWHM) of MgB2 peak in the samples. The onset of diamagnetism at 5 T was approximately 2 K higher than those of the samples heat-treated by single-step sintering at high or low temperatures. Different second-step annealing temperatures were examined in this work. …

We describe a technique that permits broad-band, field-dependent ferromagnetic and electron paramagnetic resonance absorption measurements that is applicable to thin films and patterned micro-/nanostructured arrays and is based on a wire-wound meanderline approach. Techniques to prepare meanderlines and perform microwave measurements are described along with some demonstrations involving an electron paramagnetic resonance calibration/test material, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl, and a ferromagnetic cobalt thin film.
