All superconductors in high field magnets operating above 12 T are brittle and subjected to large strains because of the differential thermal contraction between component parts on cool-down and the large Lorentz forces produced in operation. The con... Read More about Weakly-Emergent Strain-Dependent Properties of High Field Superconductors.

Inverted-parabolic and weak strain dependencies on the critical current in practical <110> and <100> oriented REBCO tapes (2019)
Journal Article
Osamura, K., Machiya, S., Kajiwara, K., Kawasaki, T., Harjo, S., Zhang, Y., Fujita, S., Iijima, Y., & Hampshire, D. P. (2019). Inverted-parabolic and weak strain dependencies on the critical current in practical and oriented REBCO tapes. AIP Advances, 9(7), Article 075216. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5092248

In the commercial coated conductor tapes, the twinned structure of REBCO (REBa2Cu3O7-d, RE = Y and Gd) is characterized as either <100> or <110> orientation based on the tape length direction. In this study, we investigate the effects of the two diff... Read More about Inverted-parabolic and weak strain dependencies on the critical current in practical <110> and <100> oriented REBCO tapes.
