Dear Chaitanya Kumar,

Thanks a lot for your kind reply.

Is Al2O or MgO available in liquid form ?

Is it possible to get levitation effect if I coat the superconductor pellet by Al2O3 ?

Actually , I dont have any idea on coating .

Please help me to perform the coating by Al2O3.

Thanks

Dear Chaitanya Kumar,

Which solvent is there in Al2O3 coating, if available in liquid form ?

Thanks

Dear Chaitanya Kumar,

Thank you very much.

Please see , our laboratory is very small.

We can synthesise YBCO and form pellets.

We have only option to coat Al2O3 manually.

YBCO pellet is of 30 mm diameter and 4 to 5 mm thickness.

Do you think that manual coating will be feasible only for demonstration purpose ?

Thanks for your response.

Dear Chaitanya Kumar,

This method of Alluminium Oxide mixing is really a new idea to me to increase the mechanical strength.

I am trying this to achieve.

But, one thing is what CAN SUPERCONDUCTORS , PASCO and LEYBOLD GmBH, Germany are doing . They are using a BSCCO or YBCO bar and performing the transition experiment without vacuum.

Perhaps they are doing some surface coating on the superconductor bar as water repellent.

Can you please give me idea regarding this ?

Your respinses are so helpfull.

Thanks .
