WP1 - Japan - Iron-based material preparation
| Workpackage number | WP1 |
| WP Leader | AIST |
| Leader | Hiroshi Eisaki |
| Workpackage title | Iron-based material preparation |
| Participant Institutions | AIST - KU - NIMS - UT |
Objectives
- to assure a constant sample supply for WP1-WP4 throughout the whole project duration
- to search for the best preparation methods and thermodynamic conditions by using the fundamental feedback from WP2-WP6.
- to include basic characterization techniques like X-ray, SEM, resistivity, dc/ac magnetization that are necessary to assess the quality of the samples.
Description of work
Task 1.1: Single crystal growth
Period 1-36, Partners: NIMS
Detailed investigations of the crystal growth conditions will be made. The temperature/pressure parameters
Task 1.2 Polycrystalline materials
Period 1-36, Partners: UT, NIMS
Based on the Exchange of Letters, JST and EC DG RTD have agreed to establish a new scheme for coordinated funding of Japanese-EU coordinated research projects (see European Community press release IP/09/1844). After consultations between JST and EC DG RTD, “Superconductivity” has been selected as the field of research for the coordinated funding scheme.
