A method of forming a superconducting conductor is disclosed. The method provides translating a substrate tape through a deposition chamber and along a helical path, where the helical path has multiple windings of the substrate tape and each winding of the substrate tape extends along a feed path and a return path. The method further provides depositing a HTS layer overlying the substrate tape within a deposition chamber, wherein the deposition chamber houses the substrate tape along the feed path but not the return path.

Also provided is a superconducting article as a tape, in a power cable, and a power transformer.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for forming a high-temperature superconducting film on a long tape substrate at speeds suitable for large-scale production. The method includes a spooling system for use in a high-throughput, continuous pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process in which a superconducting layer, such as yttrium-barium-copper-oxide (YBCO), is deposited atop a buffered metal substrate tape that is translated through one or more deposition chambers via the action of a reel-to-reel spooling system and a conductive-radiant multi-zone substrate heater. It also optionally includes a multi-target manipulator apparatus and multiple laser beams in which multiple targets are impinged upon simultaneously.

摘要:
Methods for depositing, at a very high deposition rate, a biaxially-textured film on a continuously moving metal tape substrate are disclosed. These methods comprise: depositing a film on the substrate with a deposition flux having an oblique incident angle of about 5° to about 80° from the substrate normal, while simultaneously bombarding the deposited film using an ion beam at an ion beam incident angle arranged along either a best ion texture direction of the film or along a second best ion texture direction of the film, thereby forming the biaxially-textured film, wherein a deposition flux incident plane is arranged parallel to a direction along which the biaxially-textured film has a fast in-plane growth rate. Superconducting articles comprising a substrate, a biaxially-textured film deposited on said substrate by said methods above; and a superconducting layer disposed on the biaxially-textured film are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of coating a substrate for a high temperature superconductor material is disclosed, including loading a substrate into a first deposition chamber, routing the substrate in the first deposition chamber such that the substrate forms a helical winding in the first deposition chamber, and depositing a first buffer layer to overlie the substrate as the substrate translates along the helical winding. The buffer layer has a biaxial crystallographic texture.
摘要:
The present invention is a deposition system for the production of coated substrates that provides a first deposition process that subsequently feeds a second deposition process and where the two deposition processes are occurring concurrently. The consecutive deposition system includes two dynamically isolated deposition chambers. The substrate is helically wrapped about a cooling block within the first deposition chamber such that the tape is exposed to a deposition zone a number of times sufficient to correspond to the desired film thickness. A shielding element may be included in the second deposition chamber to limit the size of the second chamber deposition zone and thus the film thickness of the second coating layer.
