Abstract
A combination of nuclear microanalysis (ion x-ray spectral analysis, Rutherford backscattering, and nuclear reactions) with low-angle neutron diffraction in the bulk of a Y-Ba-Cu-O ceramic rod, recrystallized by zone refining, was used to determine the elemental and phase composition of the initial ceramic, the crystal, and the transition sections. The degree of local homogeneity of the medium was also determined at scales of ∼101−102 nm.
