We analyze the influence of the magnetic field generated by the supercurrents (self-field) on the current density distribution by numerical simulations. The thickness of the superconducting film determines the self-field and consequently…
There are numerous potential applications for superconducting tapes, based on YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) films coated onto metallic substrates. A long established goal of more than 15 years has been to understand the magnetic flux pinning…
Critical current density Jc in polycrystalline or granular superconducting material is known to be hysteretic with applied field H due to the focusing of field within the boundary between adjacent grains. This is of concern in the so-called…
A rapid decrease in the critical current density (Jc) of YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) films with increasing film thickness has been observed for multiple YBCO growth processes. While such behavior is predicted from 2D collective pinning models under…
The possibility of a substantial reduction of weight and size of electrical generators is the main incentive behind the effort to develop superconducting armature windings based on coated conductors in the form of wide tapes with large…
It is shown that the critical currents of high-Tc superconducting tapes fabricated by the coated conductor technologies are enhanced considerably if grain arrangements with large effective grain boundary areas are used. Increasing the…
We studied the tunneling density of states in YBCO films under strong currents flowing along node directions. The currents were induced by fields of up to 32.4T parallel to the film surface and perpendicular to the $CuO_{2}$ planes. We…
For any practical superconductor the magnitude of the critical current density, $J_\textrm{c}$, is crucially important. It sets the upper limit for current in the conductor. Usually $J_\textrm{c}$ falls rapidly with increasing external…
The implementation of the 2nd generation high-Tc superconductors in power applications, such as electrical transformers, motors and generators requires superconducting wires that are superior to copper Litz wires at cryogenic temperatures…
A possible scenario for electric-field induced critical current enhancement in screw dislocated YBCO thin films is proposed based on the converse piezoelectric effect originated from a heavily defected medium of the superconducting films in…
A transport current distribution over a wide superconducting sheet is shown to strongly change in a presence of bulk magnetic screens of a soft magnet with a high permeability. Depending on the geometry, the effect may drastically suppress…
The problem of a thin superconducting film in a parallel magnetic field, first discussed in the classical paper by Ginzburg and Landau for temperatures close to the critical, is revisited with the help of the microscopic BCS theory for…
In this paper we develop a method based on the critical state for calculating the current and field distributions and the AC losses in a cable made of curved thin superconducting tapes. The method also includes the possibility of…
At high field levels, field emission losses in superconducting cavities have an adverse effect in both reducing the otherwise extremely high Q > 10^9, and the magnetic breakdown field bringing it well below the critical magnetic field of…
The dynamics of transient current distributions in superconducting YBCO thin films were investigated during and immediately following an external field ramp, using high-speed (real-time) Magneto-Optical Imaging and calculation of dynamic…
Supercurrent field-effect transistors made from thin metallic films are a promising option for next-generation high-performance computation platforms. Despite extensive research, there is still no complete quantitative microscopic…
The supercurrent field effect is experimentally realized in various nano-scale devices, based on the superconductivity suppression by external electric fields being effective for confined systems. In spite of intense research, a microscopic…
Superconductivity has been investigated for over a century, but there are still open questions about what determines the critical current; the maximum current a superconductor can carry before switching to its normal state. For a given…
We consider the distribution of an electric field in YBCO-coated conductors for a situation in which the DC transport current is forced into the copper stabilizer due to a weak link -- a section of the superconducting film with a critical…
We theoretically investigate the response of a superconducting film to line currents flowing in linear wires placed above the film, and we present analytic expressions for the magnetic-field and current distributions based on the critical…
