پیشرفتهای اخیر در زمینه ساخت سیم و نوار ابررسانای MgB2

 MgB2 wire and tape were prepared using the powder in tube and reaction in-situ technique. All samples were characterized using the XRD, SEM, TEM, as well as transport and magnetic measurements. High transport and magnetic critical current density values have been obtained for metal-clad wires and tapes. Different sheath materials have been examined, but Fe appears to be the best sheath for MgB2 superconductors. In addition to wires and tapes we also attempt to prepare superconducting coils. Results on transport Jc of solenoid coils up to 100 turns fabricated with Cu-sheathed MgB2 wires using a wind-reaction in-situ technique are reported. The results indicate that the MgB2 wires have potential for large scale applications.
