| 20120015816 | CURRENT TERMINAL STRUCTURE OF SUPERCONDUCTING WIRE AND SUPERCONDUCTING CABLE HAVING THE CURRENT TERMINAL STRUCTURE - A current terminal structure of a superconductor has a former, and a superconducting wire wound around the former in one or more layers and including a substrate and a superconducting layer formed on the substrate. A first layer superconducting wire wound around immediately above the former is arranged so that a substrate side thereof becomes outside and a superconducting layer side thereof becomes inside. A surface of the superconducting layer at an end of the first layer superconducting wire, which is directed toward the inside, and part of a surface of the superconducting layer of a connection superconducting wire, which is directed toward the outside, are faced and connected to each other. | 01-19-2012 |
| 20110218113 | SUBSTRATE FOR FABRICATING SUPERCONDUCTIVE FILM, SUPERCONDUCTIVE WIRES AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - Provided is a substrate for superconductive film formation, which includes a metal substrate, and an oxide layer formed directly on the metal substrate, containing chromium oxide as a major component and having a thickness of 10-300 nm and an arithmetic average roughness Ra of not more than 50 nm. A method of manufacturing a substrate for superconductive film formation, which includes forming an oxide layer directly on a metal substrate, the oxide layer containing chromium oxide as a major component and having a thickness of 10-300 nm and an arithmetic average roughness Ra of not more than 50 nm. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20100012349 | POLYCRYSTALLINE THIN FILM, METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME AND OXIDE SUPERCONDUCTOR - An object of the invention is to provide a polycrystalline thin film which includes an intermediate layer that is made thinner while keeping high crystal orientation so as to prevent warpage of a substrate resulting from internal stress of the film. A polycrystalline thin film according to the invention includes an intermediate layer formed by a first layer and a second layer laminated in this order and provided on a metal substrate. The first layer has a rock-salt crystal structure and the second layer has a fluorite crystal structure. | 01-21-2010 |
