About this title

Synopsis

The 39 peer-reviewed papers in this volume provide an update of work currently being carried on in the area of high-temperature superconductors. Topics of discussion include processing for high critical current densities, flux-pinning mechanisms, processing for the development of flux-pinning centres, chemistry, phase relations, soicchiometry, processing/microstructure relationships, and prototype devices for practical applications. Coverage includes: recent developments in fabrication and properties of Ag-clad BSCCO conductors; the use of phase diagrams for the engineering of flux-pinning centres in BSCCO ceramics; non-destructive measurement of current distribution in HTS conductors; a high-Tc superconductor high-voltage generator; and superconducting T(1223) tapes prepared by in-situ reaction under high pressure.
