Smaller & Sooner: Exploiting High Magnetic Fields from New Superconductors for a More Attractive Fusion Energy Development Path
TL;DR: The conclusion is that while tradeoffs exist in design choices, for example coil, cost and stress limits versus size, the potential physics and technology advantages of high-field superconductors are attractive and they should be vigorously pursued for magnetic fusion’s development.

Vertical Growth of Superconducting Crystalline Hollow Nanowires by He+ Focused Ion Beam Induced Deposition.
TL;DR: This work reports for the first time the use of a He+ focused-ion-beam-microscope in combination with the W(CO)6 precursor to grow three-dimensional superconducting hollow nanowires as small as 32 nm in diameter and with an aspect ratio of as much as 200, paving the way for future nanoelectronic devices based on three- dimensional nanosuperconductors.

Analysis of pinning effects in YBa2Cu3O7- delta single crystals after fast neutron irradiation.
TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative model is developed that is based on the layered structure of the system and the nature of the various defects introduced by irradiation, and different summation models have to be employed, depending on temperature, field orientation, field strength, and pin density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large shaped parts of melt cast BSCCO for applications in electrical engineering
TL;DR: In this paper, a melt casting process tailor made for BSCCO, especially for the 2212 phase, is described, and the properties of the material obtained by MCP have been significantly improved by admixing strontium sulphate.

Influence of granularity on the critical current density in melt-cast processed Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox
S Elschner,J Bock,H. Bestgen +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, microstructural analysis of melt-cast processed Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox reveals the existence of grain boundaries on two different length scales and the impact of the grain boundaries within and between bundles on the critical current density.

Quasi permanent superconducting magnet of very high field
TL;DR: In this article, a quasipermanent magnet made of high temperature superconductor was reported to have an average 40% molar excess of Y relative to Y1Ba2Cu3O7 and has been irradiated with high energy light ions at 200 MeV.
