냉간 압연과 열처리 공정을 통해 2축 배향성을 가지는 금속 기판 위에 산화물 박막을 증착 시켜 같은 정도의 2축 배향성을 갖도록 제조된 RABiTS template 위에 YBCO 초전도체를 PLD 방법으로 증착하여 YBCO coated conductor 선재를 제조하였다. RABiTS template은 NiW/$Y_2O_3$/NSZ/$CeO_2$ 구조로 DC reactive sputtering와 PLD 방법에 의해 증착되었다. 모든 공정은 reel-to-reel 방식의 연속 공정으로 이루어졌다. 1m와 10m급의 장선 고온초전도선재를 제조하고, 이에 대한 전기적 특성과 초전도 및 다층 산화물 완충층에 대한 결정성, 표면 특성에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과 1m 길이에서 end-to-end 107 A와 10.6m 길이에서 end-to-end 51A의 임계 전류를 획득하였다. 제조된 박막형 선재의 초전도 층과 다층의 산화물 완충층 모두 금속 기판의 결정성을 그대로 유지하면서, epitaxial하게 성장하였으며, 최종 YBCO의 in-plane FWHM 값은 > $9^{\circ}$를 유지 하였다.

Magneto-resistances of the YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ based coated conductors fabricated on the tilted single crystalline Ni substrates and RABiTS (rolling assisted bi-axially textured substrate) were measured under various magnetic fields. The activation energies of vortices were estimated from them by fitting equation of p = p$_o$ exp(-U(H,T)/k$_B$T). When currents flew in the rolling direction for the case of the tilted single crystalline YBCO on the RATS, the activation energies were similar to those of c-axis normal YBCO films on the SrTiO$_3$ single crystal substrates [5] and were slightly larger than those of the RABiTS coated conductors. On the contrary, for the currents flowing in the transverse direction, the magnetoresistances show double transitions in the temperature with much smaller activation energies.

Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) buffer layers were deposited by a metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) technique using single liquid source for the application of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) coated conductor. Y:Zr mole ratio was 0.2:0.8, and tetrahydrofuran (THF) was used as a solvent. The (100) single crystal MgO substrate was used for searching deposition condition. Bi-axially oriented CeO$_2$ and NiO films were fabricated on {100}〈001〉 Ni substrate by the same method and used as templates. At a constant working pressure of 10 Torr, the deposition temperatures (660~80$0^{\circ}C$) and oxygen flow rates (100~500 sccm) were changed to find the optimum deposition condition. The best (100) oriented YSZ film on MgO was obtained at 74$0^{\circ}C$ and $O_2$ flow rate of 300 sccm. For YSZ buffer layer with this deposition condition on CeO$_2$/Ni template, full width half maximum (FWHM) values of the in-plane and out-of-plane alignments were 10.6$^{\circ}$ and 9.8$^{\circ}$, respectively. The SEM image of YSZ film on CeO$_2$/Ni showed surface morphologies without microcrack.k.

YBCO coated conductors have been fabricated by the reel-to-reel processing using TFA-MOD method. In this work, the fluorine-free Y & Cu precursor solution was synthesized to shorten the calcining time by reducing the evolution of HF gas, thus the meter-long YBCO precursor films can be made within few hours by the continuous slot-die coating & calcination step using the F-free Y & Cu precursor solution. The annealing step was followed to make the YBCO films by the reel-to-reel method with the vertical gas flow system onto the moving tape. To increase the growth rate of the YBCO films by enhancing the removal of HF gas, the low total pressure was adopted in the annealing processing. And the water partial pressure and the oxygen partial pressure were varied to optimize the growth conditions of the MOD-YBCO films on the buffered metal tape. FE-SEM and XRD were used to investigate the surface morphologies and the texture of the meter-long YBCO films. The end-to-end critical current $(I_c)$ of 63A/cm-width and the critical current density $(J_c)$of $0.9MA/cm^2$ with the thickness of $0.7{\mu}m$ were obtained in the 0.42m long coated conductor.

We propose a replication method to solve the problem of large percent failure in texturing processes of coated conductors. This problem is due to the individual texturing process for each coated conductor that is very long tape having no single defect spot. We tested two different methods of replication process that are based on a well-textured Ni template. First method has structure of Ni/BaO/STO/$CeO_2$/SmBCO/Ag. So BaO layer is dissolved in water that we can separate STO/$CeO_2$/SmBCO/Ag layers. In this processing, the property of STO is conserved but the superconductivity of SmBCO is deteriorated. So we can consider another method. Second method has structure of template(STO)/BaO/STO/Pt/STO. After dissolving BaO then we deposited YBCO. The result of these experiments showed the feasibility of replication.

Coated conductor is an important candidate for power cable applications due to its high current density. Even for DC power cable transmission, we must study the transport properties of HTS tapes after slow and fast discharge. In order to evaluate relation of the magnetic field with applied current we developed a scanning magnetic field measurements system by employing a Hall probe. This work presents the measurements of the magnetic fields above a coated conductor by varying applied current pattern. In the work, a transport current of 100 A, less than the critical current, is applied to YBCO coated conductor. We measured the residual magnetic field distributions after cut off the transport current with slow and fast operations. The results show differences of the magnetic field profiles and the corresponding current profiles by an inverse solution from the magnetic field measurement between these two operations because of the hysteresis of coated conductor excited by the transport current.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of various deformation ratio on texture of Ag tapes that can be used as a RE-$Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ coated conductor tapes without any buffer layer. We fabricated as-rolled Ag substrate with various deformation ratio per step. Thickness and total deformation ratio of Ag tapes were $100{\mu}m$ and >98%, respectively. And as-rolled Ag substrate was annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ for 30min. The as-rolled and recrystallization textures were measured using x-ray pole figures and orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis. With the increase of rolling ratio from 5 to 20%, deformation texture are changed from {1l0}<311> to {1l0}<112>, {032}<100>, {051}<211>. After recrystallization by annealing, main texture was observed to {013}<100> under present condition.

The Resistive Type High Temperature Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) has been developed in many countries. Until now, materials of the resistive SFCL were Bi2212 bulk and YBCO thin film. Although YBCO coated conductor (CC) has many advantages such as high n-value and critical current for applying resistive SFCL, the resistive SFCL using CC doesn't have developed yet. The bifilar winding type SFCL was manufactured and tested rated on 30V/80A. In normal state, the SFCL using pancake type bifilar winding had very low impedance. When a fault occurred, the SFCL limited the fault current efficiently. Through these results of experiment, large-scale SFCL using CC should be developed in the future.
