Abstract: Disclosed is a superconducting magnet with improved thermal and electrical stabilities and a method for manufacturing the same. The superconducting magnet includes a bobbin disposed at a center of the superconducting magnet, a superconducting winding wound around an outer face of the bobbin, and an epoxy impregnated at an exterior of the superconducting winding, wherein the epoxy contains carbon nanotubes.

Abstract: Provided is a superconducting joining method of first generation superconducting wire, including: removing normal conductor parts from joining portions of first generation superconducting wires to be joined to each other, thereby exposing superconducting filaments; after inserting a superconductor powder into the joining portions, bring the superconducting filaments of the first generation superconducting wires to be joined to each other into contact with each other, and applying a pressure thereon; and causing the first generation superconducting wires that are brought into contact with each other to be subjected to melting diffusion and joined to each other, thereby minimizing a reduction in critical current and joining resistance.

Abstract: Provided is a method for joining two strands of second-generation high-temperature superconducting wire, each of which includes a substrate, a buffer layer, a superconducting layer and a stabilizer layer. The method comprises: partially removing each of the stabilizer layers to expose a portion of the superconducting layer; bringing the exposed portions of the superconducting layers into contact with each other and fixing the superconducting layers to each other; heating the strands of superconducting wire to the melting point of the superconducting layers to melt-diffuse the superconducting layers in contact with each other and to join the strands of superconducting wire together; and oxidizing the junction between the strands of superconducting wire in an oxygen atmosphere (‘oxygenation annealing’). The oxygenation annealing restores the superconducting properties of the superconducting wires lost during the melting diffusion.
