Book Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors

Download or read book Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors written by R.D. McConnell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Conference on the Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors was conceived in the early part of 1988 as a forum for the specialist in thin film superconductivity. The conference was held on November 14-18, 1988, in Co lorado Springs, Co lorado. Al though many excellent superconductivity conferences had been convened in the wake of the 1986-1987 discoveries in high temperature superconductivity, thin film topics were often dispersed among the sessions of a more general conference agenda. The response to the Conference on the Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors confirmed the need for an extended conference devoted to thin film superconductors. These proceedings are a major contribution to the technnology of thin film superconductivity because of the breadth and quality of the articles provided by leaders in the field. The proceedings are divided into articles on laser deposition, sputtering, evaporation, metal organic chemical vapor deposition, thick film, substrate studies, characterization, patterning and applications, and general properties. Most of the articles discuss scientific issues for high temperature thin film superconductors, although the conference was to be a forum for technology and scientific questions for both low and high temperature superconductivity. For the first day of the 5 day conference, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory had organized an excellent set of short courses in superconduc t ing thin film devices.

Book High Tc Superconductor Thin Films

Download or read book High Tc Superconductor Thin Films written by L. Correra and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 908 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interdisciplinary research on superconducting oxides is the main focus of the contributions in this volume. Several aspects of the thin film field from fundamental properties to applications are examined. Interesting results for the Bi system are also reviewed. The 132 papers, including 8 invited, report mainly on the 1-2-3 system, indicating that the Y-Ba-Cu-O and related compounds are still the most intensively studied materials in this field. The volume attests to the significant progress that has been made in this field, as well as reporting on the challenging problems that still remain to be solved.

Book Iron Based Superconducting Thin Films

Download or read book Iron Based Superconducting Thin Films written by Silvia Haindl and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-27 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a modern introduction to the growth, characterization, and physics of iron-based superconducting thin films. Iron pnictide and iron chalcogenide compounds have become intensively studied key materials in condensed matter physics due to their potential for high temperature superconductivity. With maximum critical temperatures of around 60 K, the new superconductors rank first after the celebrated cuprates, and the latest announcements on ultrathin films promise even more. Thin film synthesis of these superconductors began in 2008 immediately after their discovery, and this growing research area has seen remarkable progress up to the present day, especially with regard to the iron chalcogenides FeSe and FeSe1-xTex, the iron pnictide BaFe2-xCoxAs2 and iron-oxyarsenides. This essential volume provides comprehensive, state-of-the-art coverage of iron-based superconducting thin films in topical chapters with detailed information on thin film synthesis and growth, analytical film characterization, interfaces, and various aspects on physics and materials properties. Current efforts towards technological applications and functional films are outlined and discussed. The development and latest results for monolayer FeSe films are also presented. This book serves as a key reference for students, lecturers, industry engineers, and academic researchers who would like to gain an overview of this complex and growing research area.

Book Quantum Critical Behavior in the Superfluid Density of High temperature Superconducting Thin Films

Download or read book Quantum Critical Behavior in the Superfluid Density of High temperature Superconducting Thin Films written by Iulian Nicolae Hetel and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La2-xSrxCuO4, also provided the opportunity to study the other extreme end of the superconducting phase diagram. In the overdoped region, as carrier density increases, superfluid density and the transition temperature are both suppressed. While it still remains uncertain what produces this suppression, a plausible interpretation is that only a small fraction of the hole carriers contribute to the superfluid density and the pair breaking effects are so important that they destroy superconductivity.

Book Dependence of Critical Current Density on Microstructure and Processing of High  Tc  Superconductors

Download or read book Dependence of Critical Current Density on Microstructure and Processing of High Tc Superconductors written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microstructural origins for reduced weak-link behavior in high-J{sup c} melt-processed YBCO, spray pyrolyzed thick films of Tl-1223, metallic precursor Y-124 polycrystalline powder-in-tube (PIT)wires and PIT Bi-2212/2223 are discussed. Since the materials studied are the highest J{sub c}, polycrystalline, high-T{sub c} superconductors fabricated worldwide, the results provide important guidelines for further improvements in superconducting properties, thereby enabling practical applications of these materials. It is found that strongly linked current flow within domains of melt-processed 123 occurs effectively through a single crystal path. In c-axis oriented, polycrystalline Tl-1223 thick films, local in-plane texture has been found to play a crucial role in the reduced weak-link behavior. Formation of {open_quotes}colonies{close_quotes} of grains with a common c-axis and modest in-plane misorientation was observed. Furthermore, a colony boundary in general has a varying misorientation along the boundary. Large regions comprised primarily of low angle boundaries were observed. Percolative transport through a network of such small angle boundaries appears to provide the non-weak-linked current path. Although powder-in-tube BSCCO 2212 and 2223 also appear to have a {open_quotes}colony{close_quotes} microstructure, there are some important differences. Colonies in BSCCO consist of stacks of grains with similar c-axis orientation in contrast to colonies in Tl-1223 films where few grains are stacked on top of one another. In the case of Y-124 wires, weak macroscopic in-plane texture is found. Additional measurements are underway to determine if a sharper, local in-plane texture also exists. It is found that in three of the four types of superconductors studied, reduced weak-link behavior can be ascribed to some degree of biaxial alignment between grains, either on a {open_quotes}local{close_quotes} or a {open_quotes}global{close_quotes} scale.

Book Transport Critical Currents and Grain Boundary Coupling in High  Tc  Superconductors

Download or read book Transport Critical Currents and Grain Boundary Coupling in High Tc Superconductors written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose that the transport critical current density for high-[Tc] thin films, bicrystals and bulk ceramics is determined by the magnetic field penetration into the grain boundaries; the grain orientation may not be an important factor. The parameter ([lambda][sub L]/[lambda][sub J])[sup 2] can characterize the strength of the grain boundary coupling, which depends mainly on the crystal coherence and connectivity at the boundary area, but not on the crystal orientation.
