Fabrication of Long-Length and Bulk High-Temperature SuperconductorsAuthor(s): Ruling Meng, Amit Goyal, Winnie Wong-Ng, Kaname Matsumoto, Herbert C. Freyhardt\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc, United States\nImprint: Wiley-American Ceramic Society\nISBN-13: 9781574982046, 978-1574982046\nSynopsis\nThis comprehensive volume is a good summary of the latest developments in high-temperature superconductor (HTS) research and an excellent resource for researchers and managers working in this field. The book is divided into three chapters: coated conductors; BSCCO-based conductors, MgB2 , and other HTS materials; and control of microstructure. Papers include topics such as long-length flexible wires and tapes, melt-textured YBCO materials, processing of HTS materials, the current status and potential for YBCO-based coated conductors, BSCCO-based conductors, and MgB2 based wires. Proceedings of the symposium held at the 105th Annual Meeting of The American Ceramic Soc.
