Materials Research Society Fall Meeting(1998). Symposium Q: High Temperature Superconductors - Materials Challenges

Abstract

Symposium Q on High Temperature Superconductors-Materials Challenges, covered a variety of HTS Materials issues. The symposium lasted three and half days with two evening poster sessions. A total of 135 papers were delivered, and 80 of those were oral presentations. The attendance was usually around 150 while a few keynote speakers drew larger audiences of over 200. A good fraction of the participants were from Japan and Europe. Overall, the authors honored the title of the symposium. All the material-sensitive issues were discussed, and were appropriate for a MRS meeting. New techniques were reported to fine-tuned HTS properties, particularly concerning boundaries and interfaces, and improving stability of the HTS materials in ambient and operating condition.
