Abstract A magnetic pendulum device was designed, developed, and used to characterize high-Tc materials. A correlation between the volume fraction of superconducting phase in a composite and the force of expulsion was found. The device is sensitive enough to detect a volume of 0.5% superconducting phase in a composite. The application of the device for characterizing composites, incipient superconductivity, and films has been discussed.
