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…
Superconducting material enables fusion reactor magnet concepts to operate with current densities that would melt materials with non-zero resistance. The application of superconducting material is considered essential for net-positive power…
The stability against quench is one of the main issue to be pursued in a superconducting material which should be able to perform at very high levels of current densities. Here we focus on the connection between the critical current $I_c$…
2G high temperature superconducting (HTS) wires, YBCO coated conductors, perform a better carrying current capability, which is potentially applied in the manufacture of HTS magnets. This paper presents the experimental results of the…
A method of soldering of melt-textured YBa2Cu3O7-d -based (MT-YBCO) superconductive blocks using a TmBaCu3O7-d (Tm123) powder has been suggested. The method excludes stages of slow cooling during soldering and preparation of auxiliary…
Superconducting REBCO ($RE$Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$, where $RE$ is a rare earth, typically Y, Gd or Eu) electromagnets are useful for many applications like medical magnetic resonace imaging (MRI), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)…
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…
There is an interest to design superconducting magnet systems working in a persistent current mode. These systems continuously generate magnetic field with disconnected power source working like permanent magnet devices. In this paper…
This work was conducted within the framework of the exploratory French project PEPR SupraFusion, which aims to advance the field of fusion energy by developing High-Temperature Superconductor (HTS)-based demonstrators capable of storing…
We study theoretically the contribution of fluctuating Cooper pairs to the persistent current in superconducting rings threaded by a magnetic flux. For sufficiently small rings, in which the coherence length $\xi$ exceeds the radius $R$,…
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…
Superconductors play a crucial role in the advancement of high-field electromagnets. Unfortunately, their performance can be compromised by thermomagnetic instabilities, wherein the interplay of rapid magnetic and slow heat diffusion can…
We investigate whether by synthesising superconductors that are tuned to a topological, node-reconstruction transition point we could create superconducting wires that are intrinsically resilient to quenches. Recent work shows that the…
Magnetic levitation of superconductors is a promising platform to study quantum mechanics in the large-mass limit. One major limitation is the weak trapping potential, which results in low vibrational eigenfrequencies and increased…
A superconductor is stable if it does not quench. Quench is a short-time physics problem. For its deeper understanding of, and how to avoid quench, the physics behind stability has to be analysed. A previously suggested dynamic relaxation…
Fusion reactors are limited by the magnetic field available to confine their plasma. The commercial fusion industry uses the larger magnetic field and higher operating temperature of the cuprate superconductor…
Two rings with currents ia and ib become magnets that can either attract or repel each other. If mechanical work is extracted from this ring system, either by bringing closer the rings during an attraction or by separating them as the…
Manufacturing superconducting circuits out of ultrathin films is a challenging task when it comes to patterning complex compounds, which are likely to be deteriorated by the patterning process. With the purpose of developing high-T$_c$…
We propose a new approach to measuring persistent currents in normal metal rings. By integrating micron-scale metal rings into sensitive micromechanical cantilevers and using the cantilevers as torque magnetometers, it should be possible to…
We present the results of numerical analysis of normal zone propagation in a stack of $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ coated conductors which imitates a pancake coil. Our main purpose is to determine whether the quench protection quality of such coils…
