The discovery of high-Tc superconductivity in the cuprates, and the observation that strong correlations are important in connection with these compounds has led to a tremendous interest in understanding the physics of strongly correlated electronic models ...
We present the results of an advanced numerical model for fault current limiter (FCL) based on HTS thin films in which both thermal and electromagnetic aspects are taken into account. This model allows simulating the behavior of FCL in the over-critical cu ...
We present experimental results which test whether diffusion engineering can increase the energy resolution of a single-photon superconducting tunnel-junction spectrometer. When a UV photon is absorbed in superconducting Al, it creates an excess number of ...
This thesis is focused on the modelling of superconducting materials, and in particular, high-temperature superconducting materials. This work is divided in two parts: first, the dynamic magnetic field mapping obtained by measurements is used in order to r ...
The use of high temperature superconductor (HTS) materials in future fusion machines could increase the efficiency drastically, but strong boundary conditions exist. To outline the prospects, challenges and problems, first the benefit of using HTS material ...
In this paper we present a numerical model in which both the thermal and the electromagnetic aspects of the over-critical current regime of HTS materials are taken into account. The electromagnetic and thermal equations have been implemented in finite elem ...
We present the results of a systematic study of the temperature-dependent resistivity and of T-c of a single crystal MgB2 sample as a function of point defect concentration. We have found linear, albeit weak, correlation between the decreasing superconduct ...
We study a diffusive superconductor--ferromagnet--superconductor (SFS) junction with in-plane ferromagnetic domains. Close to the superconducting transition temperature, we describe the proximity effect in the junction with the linearized Usadel equations. ...
For the superconducting magnet system of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, ITER, 60 current leads for a total current of more than 2500 kA are needed. To reduce the resultant large refrigerator load at 4.5 K, High Temperature Supercondu ...
This paper presents a quantitative comparison of the AC loss performance of two BSCCO and two YBCO conductors, characterized by the same self-field critical current of 150 A. In particular, compared are a 37-filamentary BSCCO tape, a 16-filamentary BSCCO s ...
