Abstract
Commercialization of YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) superconducting coated conductor composite (CCC) technology requires a cost-effective continuous manufacturing process. High critical current YBCO CCC wires with excellent uniformity over length have been fabricated using an all-continuous process. The conductor architecture consists of a metal organic derived YBCO layer, coated on a deformation-textured NiW alloy substrate buffered with Y2O3/YSZ/CeO2. Critical current at 77 K, self-field, of up to 118 A was achieved in 1 cm-wide tapes over 1.25 meter lengths, with a standard deviation of 3% measured on a 5 cm scale. The high uniformity and performance supports the feasibility of commercial long-length CCC wire based on deformation textured metal substrates and solution-based deposition of YBCO.
