SUPERCONDUCTING WIRES AND CABLES AND METHODS FOR PRODUCING

摘要

A superconductor structure is manufactured by forming a channel within a substrate along a surface of the substrate, depositing a material within the channel of the substrate, where the material includes one of a superconductor material and a precursor for a superconductor material, and thermally treating the substance within the channel of the substrate so as to form an elongated superconductor wire formed as a single, cohesive structure. The substrate can further include a plurality of channels with superconductor wires formed within the channels. In addition, a cable is formed including a bundle of individual superconductor wires arranged at different spatial positions with respect to each other.
