摘要
The system MgxB2 has been studied to investigate possible nonstoichiometry in MgB2. When synthesized at 850 degreesC, MgB2 is a line compound with a possible Mg vacancy content of about 1%. Small changes in lattice constants as a function of starting composition result from grain-interaction stresses, whose character is different in the Mg-rich, near-stoichiometric, and Mg-deficient regimes. A small linear decrease of the superconducting transition temperature, T-c, in the Mg-rich regime results from accidental impurity doping. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
