Research and Development of Second-Generation HTS Conductors Using Metal, Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition

Abstract

The main objective of this research project is to develop coated conductors with performance characteristics that are necessary for High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) devices being developed for military applications. The second objective of this program is to improve the in-field performance of Jc of high-current films. At present the Ic drops by a factor of 4 to 5 from the zero-field value to the value at 65K and 3T. The research team's goal is to reduce this drop by a factor of 2. By meeting that goal, a critical current of 500 A.cm can be achieved at 65k and 3T using a conductor with Ic of 1000#A/cm at 77K, self-field.
