The REBCO coated conductor has the potential to be widely used in ultrahigh field magnets. It is well known, however, that it is not mechanically strong against delamination in the direction normal to its surface due to its intrinsic…

Superconducting transition temperatures Tc of the YBCO film surface and of the YBCO film/substrate interface were measured inductively. It was observed that the interface- Tc is always higher then the surface - Tc. However deposition of…

An improved nanopatterning procedure has been developed to obtain YBCO nanowires with cross sections as small as 50x50 nm^2, protected by an Au capping layer. To probe the effective role of the Au protecting layer, we have measured the…

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…

A two-dimensional model is introduced that describes current sharing between the superconducting and normal metal layers in configuration typical of YBCO-coated conductors. The model is used to compare the effectiveness of surround…

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…

REBCO coated conductor has great potential to be used in ultra-high field magnets. Commercial REBCO tapes are strong in the longitudinal direction but prone to delamination by tensile stress in the thickness direction. For high field magnet…

We report the data on magnetization losses and critical current of multifilament copper stabilized coated conductors. Eight centimeters long samples of copper stabilized YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) coated conductors manufactured commercially were…

Accessing the intrinsic critical current density (Jc*) in type II superconductors has significant fundamental and technological potential, both as a probe of the microscopic superconducting properties and as a means to increase current…

Striation of HTS coated conductors (CCs) as a way to reduce their magnetization AC losses has been the subject of intense research in the past years by several groups. While the principle of this approach is well understood, its practical…

This paper reports the results of an experimental investigation of the performance of two types of magnetic screens assembled from YBa2Cu3O7-d (YBCO) coated conductors. Since effective screening of the axial DC magnetic field requires the…

A large decrease is observed in the critical current density of YBCO coated conductors (CC) and related compounds when a strong perpendicular magnetic field is applied. While measurements are generally carried out at 77K only, here we…

Doping is one of the most relevant paths to tune the functionality of cuprates, it determines carrier density and the overall physical properties of these impressive superconducting materials. We present an oxygen doping study 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…

Much smoother surfaces and significantly improved superconducting properties of relatively thick YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) films have been achieved by introducing a multilayered structure with alternating main YBCO and additional NdBCO layers. The…

REBCO tape has successfully used in ultra-high field magnets. Mechanically, it is very strong in its length direction but is prone to delamination in the thickness direction. In an epoxy impregnated REBCO magnet, thermal strain alone could…

Over the last decade advances in high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials have generated a renewed optimism in the use of this technology in future high-power applications including motors, generators, and power transmission. The…

In type-II superconductors, in the regime of very high applied current density, an abrupt transition is experimentally observed from the mixed state to a highly dissipative regime, probably the normal state. This provokes a high voltage…

YBaCuO nanowires were reproducibly fabricated down to widths of 50 nm. A Au/Ti cap layer on YBCO yielded high electrical performance up to temperatures above 80 K in single nanowires. Critical current density of tens of MA/cm2 at T = 4.2 K…

Most applications of superconductors, such as power transmission lines, motors, generators, and transformers, require long cables through which large currents circulate. Impressive progress has recently been achieved in the current-carrying…
