Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide (Rebco)

Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide (Rebco). On april 7, a team led by maglab engineer seungyong hahn tested a small but potent magnet made of rare earth barium copper oxide, or rebco, which efficiently conducts electricity without any resistance at relatively high temperatures and magnetic fields. How is rare earth copper used in superconductor cables?

That’s quite difficult to do, even with the greatest care, because rebco is quite brittle. As a result, the sides of the tape that had been slit were vulnerable to cracking under the mec. To meet the lbc’s requirements, however, those tapes had to be cut lengthwise to 4 mm wide.

The little big coil team included (left to right) david larbalestier, seungyong hahn and iain dixon.how could something so small create a field that big?

And we responded to the challenge. the team disassembled the lbc, ran a battery of tests, collected new data. Rebco superconductors have the potential to sustain stronger magnetic fields than other superconductor materials. However, long lengths of the superconductor can only be manufactured in the form. Why are barium copper oxides used in fusion reactors?

By using a promising, new conductor and a novel magnet design.

But it also adds weight and bulk.

Rebco superconductors have the potential to sustain stronger magnetic fields than other superconductor materials.

Interface resistance has been evaluated by the current transfer length (ctl) method.

Interface resistance has been evaluated by the current transfer length (ctl) method.

Today's electromagnets contain insulation between conducting layers, which directs the current along the most efficient path.

The tapes can be manufactured reliably in long.
