Ductile Superconducting Wire Through Novel Metallurgical Techniques

摘要

Ductile superconducting wires can be formed through controlled precipitation of the A15 phase from supersaturated solution in the solid state. The current research has focused on melting, homogenizing, and thermomechanically processing supersaturated solutions of Ga in V. A diagram of the rolling process is given. (ERA citation 03:035548)
