Method of producing superconducting ceramic wire.

摘要

A superconducting ceramic wire is prepared from a superconducting ceramic-forming oxide composition by melting, the composition and quenching the melt to form a dense glass, which is soften and wire-drawn in a furnace. The resulting wire is heat-treated to form crystals and made into a superconducting ceramic wire. The wire has a flexibility and remarkable superconductivity which can further be improved by applying pressure to be made more dense and repeating the heat-treatment.
