The SmBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$\sub$x/ single crystals were used as seeds to induced YBCO growth in MTG process. As the result, the large bulk oriented YBCO superconductors were prepared with dimension of plane 21mm and 32mm in diameter and 10mm in height. The typical Jc value of the sample is 6.5${\times}$10$^4$A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and its flux float force is 4.6N/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The oxygen absorption in large bulk textured YBCO samples in pure oxygen was studied at several constant temperatures. It can be divided into two steps: a chemical reaction step and a diffusion step.

세라믹 고온초전도체는 에너지 저장장치의 핵심소재로 사용된다. 초전도 플라이휠 에너지 저장장치(Superconductor flywheel energy storage system)는 전기 에너지를 운동 에너지로 변환하여 저장하는 친환경, 고효율 에너지 저장장치이다. 에너지를 최소화하는데 사용되는 초전도 베어링은 고온초전도체와 영구자석으로 구성된다. 베어링에는 희토류계 초전도 물질(RE-Ba-Cu-O, RE:Rare-earth elements)가 사용된다. 베어링의 효율은 영구자석의 자력크기, 초전도체의 자기부상력과 포획자력에 비례한다. 에너지 저장효율을 높이려면 고온 초전도체의 임계전류밀도(초전도체 내부에 흘릴 수 있는 전기량)를 높이고, 초전도 결정립의 크기를 키워야 한다. 결정크기를 키우는 공정으로 종자결정성장법(Seed growth process)이 사용된다. 초전도체 제조공정은 분말의 성형, incongruent melting을 포함하는 부분 용융, 액상에서의 입성장, 포정반응을 통한 초전도 결정의 성장과정을 포함한다. 본 발표에서는 초전도 에너지 저장장치의 기본 원리, 초전도 베어링의 구성, 베어링용 초전도체의 제조방법과 특성(자기부상력과 포획자력) 평가기술, 차세대 에너지 저장장치로서의 초전도 플라이휠 에너지 저장장치의 전망에 대해 요약하였다.

We studied the trapped field properties of bulk Y-Ba-Cu-O superconductors by applying 3 T of the permanent or $Nb_3Ti$ superconducting magnet. The 28 mm circular type of YBCO bulk superconductor was prepared and then hole at the center of bulk, parallel to the c-axis, was mechanically drilled. Typical size of hole in YBCO bulk was 10 mm in diameter. In order to examine the trapped field variation in terms of different impregnated materials, a hole in YBCO bulk was filled with resin and indium respectively. The trapped field decay due to flux flow was determined in terms of time. Our preliminary result indicates the trapped field value measured on the YBCO without hole after 30 minute by applying 3 T, was 6,500 G, which is much higher than that, 4,500 G, measured on YBCO with hole. Also, we confirmed that the tendency of a trapped field decrement with time was almost the same regardless of the impregnated materials in YBCO.

LaAlO3d single phase used as the butter layer on Si wafer for YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ superconductor application were prepared by solid state reaction method and by self-sustaining combustion process. The microstructure and crystallity of synthesiszed LaAlO3 powder studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffractometer(XRD), specific surface area and sintering characteristics fo powder were investigated by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method and dilatometer respectively. In solid state reaction method, it is difficult to obtain LaAlO3 single phase up to 150$0^{\circ}C$ period. However, in self-sustaining combustion process, it is to easy to do it only $650^{\circ}C$. Based on the results of analysis of dilatometer it is easier to obtain high sintering density (98.87%) in self-sustaining combustion process than in the solid state reaction method. This reason is that the average particle size prepared by self-sustaining combustion process is nano crystal size and has high specific surface are value(56.54 $m^2$/g) compared with that by solid state reaction method. Also, LaAlO3 layer on the Si wafer has been achieved by screen printing and sintering method. Even though the sintering temperature is 130$0^{\circ}C$, the phenomena of silicon out diffusion in LaAlO3/Si interphase are not observed.
