Method of manufacturing a superconducting electrical conductor

The method involves initially applying an interlayer (3) of a metallic material, which is compatible with a crystal structure of yttrium-barium-copper oxide (YBCO) or with a structure of a buffer layer (9), onto an elongate metal support (1). The support with the interlayer is processed so that pred...

Summary:The method involves initially applying an interlayer (3) of a metallic material, which is compatible with a crystal structure of yttrium-barium-copper oxide (YBCO) or with a structure of a buffer layer (9), onto an elongate metal support (1). The support with the interlayer is processed so that predetermined texturing is imparted to the interlayer as a metal base for the layer of YBCO material (6) or the buffer layer. The layer of superconductive YBCO material is applied directly onto the textured interlayer or the buffer layer, and heat treatment is carried out.
