In 1987, M. K. Wu and Paul Chu discovered $Y_{1.2}Ba_{0.8}CuO_4$ (YBCO) with critical temperature ($T_c$) of 93 K. It has significantly lowered the cost of cooling of a material up to the point where superconductivity set in. Utilizing the cost reduction of attaining superconductivity and the vast amount of research to understand characteristics of high temperature oxide superconducting materials, there has been effort to use a high temperature superconductor as a coated conductor. It is important to characterize the materials precisely for stable performance before commercializing. We used polarized Raman scattering spectroscopy to study structural and stoichiometric information regarding $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$, $GdYBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$, and $GdBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ produced by three leading groups of producing commercial grade high temperature superconductor coated conductors American Superconductor Corporation, Superpower, and SuNAM.

Superconducting synchronous motor using HTS(high-temperature superconducting) field windings has a lot of advantages over LTS(Jow-temperature superconducting) synchronous machine. A recently developed 5000[hp] HTS motor represents 1/2 reduction in weight and volume compared to an induction type conventional machine. Furthermore. 40% machine loss is reduced compared to the industry average. Based on a conceptual design, a 100[hp] HTS synchronous motor is modeled by F.E.M(Finite Element Method) and the performance is predicted in this paper

A pseudogap in the normal-state quasiparticle density of states of $high-T_c$ superconductors has been revealed in many different kinds of experiments. The existence of the pseudogap and the superconducting gap, and the correlation between them has attracted considerable attention because they are believed to be a key to understanding the mechanism of the $high-T_c$ superconductivity. The interlayer tunneling spectroscopy, excluding the surface-dependent effect, is one of the most accurate means to examine the electron spectral characteristics both in the superconducting and the normal states. In this study, a new constant-temperature intrinsic tunneling spectroscopic technique, excluding the overheating effect using the in-situ temperature monitoring combined with the digital proportional-integral-derivative control, is introduced. The implication on the $high-T_c$ superconductivity of the detailed temperature dependencies of the observed spectral weight in $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{8+x}\;high-T_c$ material for overdoped and underdoped levels is discussed.

The high temperature superconducting YBCO films were deposited on the SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystals to find out the proper deposition conditions of YBCO on biaxially-textured metal substrates. Different sets of the substrate temperature, oxygen partial pressure and laser fluence were used to investigate the effect of deposition conditions on the superconducting properties. The new apparatuses for measuring critical temperature (Tc) and critical current (Ic) were designed and manufactured, which were used to obtain Tc's and Ic's of the deposited films. The accuracy of the new apparatus was confirmed by comparing the results with those from SQUID magnetometer. The results on the YBCO films deposited on single crystal substrates which will be used to get the optimum deposition conditions of YBCO films in the coated conductor, are summarized in this report.

In this paper we calculate the AC Loss in the superconducting slab carrying ac transport current. Magnetic diffusion equation for computation of the electric field and current distribution are based on Maxwell's equations and non-linear constitutive equation. The E-J characteristics of superconductor are applied to computation. We will present the result of the high-temperature superconductor case comparison with the slab of low temperature superconductor.

The variation of critical current by the formation of crack in a high temperature super-conducting tape was studied by experimental and numerical analyses. The current-voltage relation of HTS tape is measured by the four-point measurement method. Numerical analyses are used to solve two dimensional heat conduction equation, considering the temperature distribution. By comparing current-voltage relation of experimental and numerical results, the validity of numerical method is verified.

The conduction cooling HTS SMES magnet is operated in cryogenic temperature. The insulation design at cryogenic temperature is an important element that should be established to accomplish miniaturization that is a big advantage of HTS SMES. However, the behaviors of insulators for cryogenic conditions in air or vacuum are virtually unknown. Therefore, we need active research and development of insulation concerning application of the conduction cooling HTS SMES. Specially, this paper was studied about high vacuum and cryogenic temperature breakdown and flashover discharge characteristics between cryocooler and magnet-coil. The breakdown and surface flashover discharge characteristics were experimented at cryogenic temperature and vacuum. Also, we were experimented about mechanical properties of 4-point bending test. From the results, we confirmed that about research between cryocooler and magnet-coil established basic data in the insulation design.

High-temperature superconduction materials(Bi2223) possess electrical/electronic and magnetic properties. Because high-temperature superconduction materials is a ceramic powder, that cannot be produced singlehandedly. So Ag sheathed Bi-2223 wire was produced by drawing process using powder-in-tube(PIT) method. This superconductor has many difficulties to produce. The main difficulty is that the mechanical properties of the ceramic powder are very different from those of the Ag sheath. And by these properties, Bi2223 high-temperature superconductor, which has a single filament drawing process and multi-filament drawing process, has a defect like sausaging and bursting at a center. This study analyzed multi-filament drawing process by FEM, and a defect generated during multi-filament drawing was studied by FEH. Specially, in order to prevent a bursting at a center, this study presented a method that inserts a pure Ag at a center of multi-filament wire

The notion of the finite pairing interaction energy range Td is shown to result in a linear temperature dependence of the London magnetic penetration depth length, ${\Delta}{\lambda}{/\lambda}(0)=(T/Td)2/\pi)ln2$ at low T in the case of the s-wave pairing state, accounting for data of high Tc superconductor by Hardy et al.
