Insulation effect on thermal stability of Coated Conductors wires in liquid nitrogen

Bertrand Dutoit, Bertrand Dutoit

Superconducting wires are not perfectly homogeneous in term of critical current as well as stabilization. In resistive fault current limiter applications this could lead to hot spots if the fault current is only slightly above the nominal current of the de ...

High temperature superconductors for fusion at the Swiss Plasma Center

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Rainer Wesche

High temperature superconductors (HTS) may become in future an option for the superconducting magnets of commercial fusion plants. At the Swiss Plasma Center (SPC) the R&D activity toward HTS high current, high field cables suitable for fusion magnets star ...

Magnetization loss for stacks of ReBCO tapes

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti

The AC loss measurements of the high temperature superconductor (HTS) cable prototype in the EDIPO test facility motivated detailed investigations of the loss contributions from the tape, strand and cable stages of the HTS fusion conductor design proposed ...

Can Resistive-Type Fault Current Limiter Operate in Cryogen-Free Environment?

Bertrand Dutoit, Bertrand Dutoit

Superconducting fault current limiters are unique devices that offer fast response to fault without need of an external triggering system. Therefore, they are interesting for industrial use, although their price is high. The principle of the resistive faul ...

Design Optimization of Round Strands Made by Twisted Stacks of HTS Tapes

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Rainer Wesche

Atwisted stack of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes soldered into copper profiles was used as a strand in the fabrication of the 60-kA/ 12-T HTS cable prototype at the Center for Research in Plasma Physics (CRPP). Considering the strand in gener ...

Completion of the Commissioning of the EDIPO Test Facility

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Boris Stepanov, Rainer Wesche, Kamil Sedlák, Stephen Alfred March

The main coils of the new European DIPOle (EDIPO) test facility, which is able to provide a background magnetic field up to 12.35 T, were commissioned at the Center for Research in Plasma Physics in July 2013. A field homogeneity of +/-1% was achieved over ...

Electronic properties of transition-metal dichalcogenides

Andras Kis

Graphene is not the only prominent example of two-dimensional (2D) materials. Due to their interesting combination of high mechanical strength and optical transparency, direct bandgap and atomic scale thickness transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are ...

Critical current anisotropy in Nd-1111 single crystals and the influence of neutron irradiation

Sergiy Katrych

We report on angle-resolved magnetization measurements on NdFeAsO0.65F0.35 ( Nd-1111) single crystals. The field dependence of the critical current density, Jc, is non-monotonic in these crystals at all orientations and temperatures due to the fishtail eff ...
