Author(s) : SHI D.

Type of monograph: Other

Summary

Special features of the book: presents recent developments in vortex-state properties, defects characterization, and phase equilibrium; introduces basic concepts for experimental techniques at low temperatures and high-magnetic fields; provides a valuable reference for materials-related research; discusses potential industrial applications of high-temperature superconductivity; includes novel processing technologies for thin film and bulk materials; suggests areas of research and specific problems whose solution can make high-critical temperature superconductors a practical reality. Extract of contents: superconductivity in the layered cuprates; properties of superconductors (new considerations in measurements); crystal structures and phase equilibria; statics and dynamics of the vortex state in type II superconductors; structural defects in YBCO superconductors; transport critical currents; superconducting thin films; bulk processing and characterization of YBCO; processing bismuth-based superconducting tapes, wires, and thick films for conductor applications; application for high-temperature superconductors.
