Superconducting structure comprising coated conductor tapes, in particular stapled perpendicularly to their substrate planes

摘要

A superconducting structure (1) has a plurality of coated conductor tapes (2; 2a-2o), each with a substrate (3) which is one-sided coated with a superconducting film (4), in particular an YBCO film, wherein the superconducting structure (1) provides a superconducting current path along an extension direction (z) of the superconducting structure (1), wherein the coated conductor tapes (2; 2a-2o) provide electrically parallel partial superconducting current paths in the extension direction (z) of the superconducting structure (1), is characterized in that the coated conductor tapes (2; 2a-2o) are superconductively connected among themselves along the extension direction (z) continuously or intermittently. A more stable superconducting structure with which high electric current strengths may be transported is thereby provided.

1. A superconducting structure comprising:
a plurality of coated conductor tapes, each tape having a substrate, wherein each substrate is coated on one side thereof with a superconducting film or with a YBCO film, the superconducting structure providing a superconducting current path along a z-direction of the superconducting structure, wherein said coated conductor tapes provide electrically parallel partial superconducting current paths in said z-direction of the superconducting structure, said coated conductor tapes being superconductively connected among themselves along said z-direction in a continuous or intermittent manner, the superconducting structure having a y-direction extending substantially parallel to planar extensions of said substrates and substantially perpendicular to said z-direction as well as an x-direction extending substantially perpendicular to said planar extensions of said substrates, wherein said coated conductor tapes are stacked in said x-direction in a closed ring shaped fashion, thereby forming a ring-shaped stack, wherein a circumferential direction of said ring-shaped stack extends substantially perpendicular to substrate planes.
