The technology refers to a new concept of achieving the maximum size of grown GdBCOAg bulk single crystal superconductor, prepared by growth from fused superconductor components.
Competitive advantage
- possibility of using cheaper cerium compared to expensive platinum,
- achieving larger dimensions of a bulk monocrystalline superconductor,
- the possibility of reducing the volume fraction of the residual solidified melt,
- the possibility of reducing dilatational thermal stresses at the crystal/solidified melt interface,
- the possibility of reducing the risk of cracks during cooling from the temperature of crystal growth,
- the ability to optimize the production process of a bulk monocrystalline superconductor,
- the possibility of reducing production costs,
- the possibility of increasing production profit.
Use of technology
- The technology can be used in various areas, specifically in the area of production of bulk monocrystalline superconductors by the method of growing crystals from a molten mixture of superconductor components.
