Description

Using the powder-in-tube technique, superconducting monocore and multicore wires have been produced with several outer diameters (the thinnest one was (1)/(10) mm) and a length of more than 1000 m. The procedure was optimized for achieving high-transport current density. Three parameters were varied, namely, wire diameter, sinter duration, and sinter temperature. The most powerful wire prepared had a critical transport current density of 750 A/cm2
