Extract

Although light microscopy is commonly used to characterize high-temperature superconductors, few details have appeared in the literature. This paper discusses light-microscopy observations on secondary phases, grain structure, twinning, microhardness, and texture in sintered compacts of Y1Ba2Cu3O7−x (123).
