Multi-slacked HTS tapes are needed to conduct large current in the power application of superconducting machine. This paper deals with the transport current loss of multi-stacked YBCO coated conductor. YBCO coated conductor that was used in this experiment has two Cu layers above and below of YBCO layer for stabilization. Transport losses of four different stacks, single, 2 stack, 3 stack and 4 stack, were measured. Measured results were compared analytic equation suggested by Norris.

To investigate the influence of strip width and inter-strip separation on the ac loss, arrays of parallel strips with different widths and separations were prepared. Studies on the hysteresis-loss characteristics of multifilamentary YBCO films were performed. The local magnetic field due to magnetization currents is measured by a scanning Hall probe microscope. Based on these results a conceptual design for a low loss YBCO coated conductor is suggested.

For the enhancement of communication system performance, high quality filters are required. Conventional metal filters made of copper can be substituted by high quality high temperature superconductivity(HIS) flms for better performance. In order to reduce the size of the filter for the integration of device in the limited area, we have fabricated hairpin type filters using pulsed laser deposition(PLD) technique. The superconducting YBCO thin films have been grown on MgO substrates by PLD with Nd:YAC laser. The YBCO films were patterned by conventional wet-etching process. We have compared YBCO filters and copper filters which were made with the same spec. Simulated and measured frequency responses reveal that HIS YBCO hairpin type bandpass filters show better performance than copper filters.

We investigated resistance development in Au/YBCO thin film meander lines during quench. The meander lines were fabricated by coating YBCO films insitu with a gold layer and patterning them by photolithography. The center stripe quenched fastest even though the flux flow resistance that appeared upon the current passing the critical current was uniform. Quench started at an area of the center stripe and propagate both through the gold layer and the sapphire substrate. Quench propagation speed was uniform and 60 cm/s at 30 V$_{rms}$.

Good quality superconducting $YBa_2Cu_30_{7-{\delta}}$(YBCO) thin films were grown on Hastelloy (Ni-Cr-Mo alloys) with yttria-stabilized zirconia(YSZ) buffer layers by in situ pulsed laser deposition in a multi-target processing chamber. Generally, Hastelloy exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion, fatigue, thermal shock, impact, and erosion. However, it is difficult to make films on flexible metallic substrates due to interdiffusion problems between metallic substrates and superconducting overlayers. To overcome this difficulty, it is necessary to use YSZ buffer layer since it will not only limit the interdiffusion process but also minimize the surface microcrack formation due to smaller mismatch between the film and the substrate. In order to enhance the crystallinity of YBCO films on metallic substrates, YSZ buffer layers were grown at various temperatures different from the deposition temperature of YBCO films. On YSZ buffer layer grown at higher temperature than that for depositing YBCO film, the YBCO thin film was found to be textured with c-axis orientation by x-ray diffraction and had a zero-resistance critical temperature of about 85K.

본 논문에서는 2세대 고온초전도 선재인 YBCO CC(Coated Conductor)를 사용하여 접합 없이 권선되는 새로운 형태의 고온초전도 팬케이크형 코일에 영구전류를 인가하기 위한 영구전류 스위치의 형태를 제안였다. 제안된 테이프 형태의 광폭 YBCO CC의 양끝부분을 제외한 중간부분을 2분할하여 감아 뒤집은 형태의 팬케이크 코일에는 접합부분이 없으므로 영구전류가 흐를 수 있으나, 전류의 인가를 위한 스위치를 별도로 제작하여 연결하기 곤란하다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 감아 뒤집은 고온초전도 팬케이크 코일의 한쪽 단부를 영구전류 스위치로 사용할 수 있는 구조를 제안하였고, 추후 연구에 실제로 사용될 12 mm 폭의 YBCO CC를 사용하여 영구전류 스위치를 제작하고 특성시험을 수행하였다.

It is very important to select suspension solution for forming electrophoretic deposited YBCO thick mm, because it is heavily affected to its superconducting properties. In this paper, high-temperature superconductor films of $YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-x}$ were fabricated by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) from alcohol-based suspension such as iso-propanol, iso-butanol, and their mixture. For the formation of YBCO dense and adherent coating on a silver wire by EPD, 1 % PEG(1000) 2 ml, as a additive for making their surface crack-free, was used for electrophoresis. As a results, the cracks were considerably decreased and the superconducting critical current density $(J_e)$ without/with PEG was $1200A/cm^2$ and $2020A/cm^2$, which films deposited in mix iso-propanol and iso-butanol suspension.

Distribution of local critical temperature and current density in $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) coated conductors was analyzed using a Low-temperature Scanning Laser Microscopy (LTSLM). We prepared YBCO coated conductors of various bridge types to study the spatial distribution of critical temperature and current density in single and multi bridges. An LTSLM system was modified for a detailed two-dimensional scan without shifting of the sample. We observed a spatial distribution of the critical temperature from the bolometric response, which arises from a focused laser beam at the sample near the superconducting transition. Also we studied the relation between the critical temperature and the current density.

Distribution of the local critical temperature and current density in YBCO coated conductors were analyzed using Low-temperature Scanning Laser and Hall Probe Microscopy (LTSLHPM). We prepared YBCO coated conductors of various bridge types to study the spatial distribution of the critical temperature and the current density in single and multi bridges. LTSLHPM system was modified for detailed linescan or two-dimensional scan both scanning laser and scanning Hall probe method simultaneously. We analyzed the local critical temperature of single and multi bridges from series of several linescans of scanning laser microscopy. We also investigated local current density and hysteresis curve of single bridge from experimental results of scanning Hall probe microscopy.
