  • Publication number: 20190181326
    Abstract: A superconducting lead is presented for conducting electrical current to a superconducting device. the superconducting lead comprises first and second sections arranged one after the other along the lead, such that when the lead is brought to the superconducting device, the first and second sections are respectively proximal and distal sections with respect to the superconducting device, the proximal and distal sections being configured such that they differ from one another in at least one of heat conductance and working current.

  • Publication number: 20190131044
    Abstract: A substrate structure is provided for use in a superconductive device. The substrate structure has at least one of its two opposite surfaces configured for carrying at least one superconductive structure thereon. The substrate structure comprises a substrate made of a dielectric material composition and having a tape-like shape of a predetermined geometry characterized by a width-thickness aspect ratio of at least 10 and global planarity of said at least one surface defined by a surface roughness on a nanometric scale substantially not exceeding 1 nm rms.

  • Patent number: 9349935
    Abstract: Described is a superconductive layered structure and an article including this superconductive layered structure on a substrate structure. The superconductive layered structure comprises a stack including at least one bi-layered assembly formed by first and second layers of similar superconducting material compositions, the second layer being superconductive at predetermined temperature condition, the first layer being a substantially thin layer and having a c lattice parameter selected in accordance with those of the substrate structure and the second layer, such that said first layer is non-superconductive at said predetermined temperature condition thereby allowing the second superconductive layer to be desirably thick to provide high critical current density of the superconductive layer.

  • Patent number: 8664163
    Abstract: Described is an article including a sapphire substrate carrying a superconductive layer of a compound of the formula YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO), the layer having surface area of at least 10 cm2, and critical current of at least 100 A/cm width at a temperature of 77K or higher. In one exemplary embodiment, the thickness of the superconductive layer is between 10 nm and 50 nm. In another exemplary embodiment, the thickness of the superconductive layer is more than 600 nm. In preferred embodiment, an YSZ layer and a non-superconductive YBCO layer separate between the superconductive layer and the substrate.
