Abstract:Despite the fact that high critical current densities (JC' s) have been obtained in high temperature conductor (HTS) single crystals, the large-scale application of polycrystalline HTS, such as in wires, solenoids and magnets has been limited by the poor alignment of superconducting grains due to the presence of grain boundary weak links with low values of J, [l].Among the three major families of HTS, namely the Y-Ba-Cu-0 (YBCO), Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-0 (BSCCO), the T1-Ba-Ca-Cu-0 (TBCCO) systems, the best wires produced… Show more
