This project will investigate the role of texture (preferred grain              orientation) in a high Tc superconductor.  Compounds of the                     RBa2Cu3O7-x type have highly anisotropic superconducting response.              High critical currents at significant fields are likely only when               both current and field are nearly parallel to the basal plane of the            orthorhombic structure.  The properties of polycrystalline aggregates           show a strong dependence on texture, and texture evolution can be               controlled in wire and tape processing.  This project will evaluate             crystallite orientation and morphology in synthesized YBa2Cu3O7-x               powder, and will use the results to make textured powder aggregates             through P/M and deformation processing.  Wire and tape will be                  produced, and texture and superconducting properties will be                    measured.
