Phase equilibria and reaction paths of the superconducting phases and other compatible phases at $850^{\circ}C$ in the Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system were studied. $Bi_2O_3$ was added to $Sr_2CaCu_2O_x$ by 5% up to 40 mole% Bi in the pseudo-binary $Bi_2O_3-(Sr_2CaCu_2O_x)$ system and the heat treated samples were analysed using XRD. SEM, EDS. and DT A. When Bi contents were greater than 35 mole% Bi, liquid phase was formed which was compatible with $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8$ phase. The m.p. of $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8$ phase decreased as the content of (Sr+Ca)decreased. $Bi_{2+x}Sr_2CaCu_2O_8$ phase first segregated out of liquid phase around $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8$ phase during cooling of liquid phase.

$Pb/Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta}$-single-crystal junctions with the tunneling direction along the c axis of the crystal were fabricated to obtain an s-wave-superconductor/d-wave-superconductor Josephson junctions. The tunneling R (T) curves and current-voltage characteristics show distinct features which can be explained only under the assumption that the order parameter of high-$T_c/Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+{\delta}}$ superconductors has a pure d-wave symmetry, which is in contrast to the case of $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7+{\delta$}}$erconductors where a minor s-wave component is also present..

Floating Zone Image furnace with halogen lamps as heat source has been made and applied to the growth of high-Tc superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8. The manufactured crystal growth equipment is composed of holder unit for setting the halogen lamps at the focal point of the elliptical mirror, image furnace with maximum temperature of 1800℃ with 1kW halogen lamps, cooling unit, feeding unit for supplying source material to the molten zone, pulling unit for crystal growth, and the control unit in the range of 2mm/hr -40 mm/hr vertical movement and 15rpm - 12rpm rotation. Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 fibers have been grown with 300W halogen lamps and characterized with XRD, SEM and EDS. The growth condition was air atmosphere, growth speed 3∼4mm/hr, rotation speed of upper and lower part 20∼25 rpm. The fiber was composed of 20∼25 rpm matrix phase and secondary phases such as (Sr,Ca)CuO2 and (Sr,Ca)2CuO3.

Wekk oriented $Bi_{2} Sr_{2} CaCu_{2} O_{8}$ suppercondcting thick films were fabricared on copper tape by LiReac-PreCu (liquid reaction between a Cu-free precousor and Cu tape) method. Cu-free precursor power which is composed of $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{5}$ was printed on a copper tape by screen printing and was heat-treated. The speciment were partially in a molten state at the heat treatment temperature (85$0^{\circ}C$~87$0^{\circ}C$). The heat heat treatments for the reaction were performed in air or low oxygen pressure in several stages. XRD analyses of the resulting Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 superconducting tapes show that the $Bi_{2} Sr_{2} CaCu_{2} O_{8}$ phase is dominant and a small amount of $Bi_{2} Sr_{2} Cu_{2} O_{6}$ phase is detected. Both phases are aligned in the c-axis direction.

To tap the feasibility of exploiting the 2$^{nd}$ phases as flux-pinning centers in the (Bi,Pb)$_2Sr_2Ca_2CuO_{10}$ superconductor, the size and the distribution of the precipitates have been controlled by changing reaction temperature and time, oxygen partial pressure Po$_2$ and annealing condition. Various annealing heat treatments were also conducted on the as-received 61 filament Bi-2223 tapes with Bi$_{1.8}Pb_{0.4}Sr_2Ca_{2.2}Cu_3O_8$ starting composition and annealed specimen were analyzed with XRD, SEM, EDS and TEM.. The grain size of (Ca,Sr)$_2$(BiPb)O$_4$ or Bi$_{0.5}Pb_3Sr_2Ca_2CuO_{\delta}$ was controllable by optimizing the heat treatment condition and critical current density (J$_c$) showed dependence on the size of the 2$^{nd}$ phases.

The orientation mechanism of an amorphous $Bi_{2}$$Sr_{2}$$Ca_{2 x}$$Cd_{x}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{y}$ phase were studied by using the dilatometry. The amorphous $Bi_{2}$$Sr_{2}$$Ca_{2 x}$$Cd_{x}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{y}$ samples brought about a volume shrinkage at the onset of the crystallization of a $Bi_{2}$$Sr_{2}$$CaCu_{2}$$O_{6}$phase around $400^{\circ}C$. The random crystal growth of $Bi_{2}$$Sr_{2}$$CaCu_{2}$$O_{8}$ phase around $800^{\circ}C$. yielded a rapid volume expansion and after then samples shrinmed, accompanied with the crystal orientation. The$Bi_{2}$$Sr_{2}$$Ca_{2 x}$$Cd_{x}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{y}$ (x=0.4) sample exhibited the best-oriented structure because the liquid phase formed seemed to have the lowest viscosity which would contributed to the easy collapse of the card-house structure.

Cu-free multi-component sol, of which final oxide composition becomes $Bi_{1.9}Pb{0.35}SrCaO,\;Bi_{1.8}Pb_{0.2}SrCaO\;and\;Bi_{1.5}SrCaO$, respectively, was prepared through sol-gel route and coated on a bare Cu substrate. Starting materials were metal-alkoxides as follows.; [$Bi(OC_{2}H_{5})_{3}\;Pb(O^{1}C_{3}H_{7})_{2},\;Sr(O^{i}C_{3}H_{7})_{2},\;Ca(OC_{2}H_{5})_{2}$] as a reagent grade. Transparent light yellowish sol was obtained in the case of $Bi_{1.9}Pb_{0.35}SrCaO\;and\;Bi_{1.8}Pb_{0.2}SrCaO$ composition and $Bi_{1.5}SrCaO$ composition's sol was light greenish. Each sol was repeatedly dip-coated on Cu substrate four times and pre-heated at $400^{\circ}C$ and finally heat-treated in the range of $740{\sim}900^{\circ}C$. In the results, crystalline phases confirmed by XRD were (2201) orthorhombic and monoclinic phases. However, only $Bi_{1.9}Pb_{0.35}SrCaO_{x}$ composition showed pseudo-superconductive behavior after heat-treatment at $900^{\circ}C$ for 12 seconds and then onset temperature was 77 K, even though it did not exhibit zero resistance below Tc.

We investigated the effect of the oxygne partial pressure on the phase stability of B $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$Ca C $u_{2}$ $O_{8+x}$ and B $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{10+x}$ at 82$0^{\circ}C$. As the oxygen pressure decreased, B $i_{2}$Sr/sb 2/CaC $u_{2}$ $O_{8+x}$ melted at 2.2$\times$10$^{-3}$ atm $O_{2}$. In the case of the B $i_{1.7}$P $b_{0.4}$S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$ $O_{10+x}$, it started to decompose into theree phases of B $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$Cu $O_{6+y}$, $Ca_{2}$Cu $O_{3}$ and C $u_{4}$ $O_{3}$ and C $u_{4}$ $O_{3}$ at 8.0$\times$10$^{-3}$ atm $O_{2}$ and was completely decomposed at 4.3$\times$10$^{-3}$ atm $O_{2}$ B $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{10+x}$ phase was not formed by the solid state reaction from the mixutre of $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$CaCu.sub 2/ $O_{8+x}$, $Ca_{2}$Cu $O_{3}$ and CuO down to 2.2$\times$10.sub -3/ atm O.sub 2/ but formed by the solidifciation of the formed from the mixture of the intermediate compounds in the Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system and the fromation temperature of Bi.sub 2/S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$Cu.$_{3}$ $O_{10+x}$ can be lowered by reducing oxygen partial pressure.e.e.ure.e.e.
