This research reports an efficient method for superconducting joints of YBCO coated conductors. By etching microchannels in the YBCO layer, the recovery of critical current in the superconducting joint is accelerated, and a dense joining is formed to enable superconducting current path. This technique can promote the persistent current mode operation of 2G HTS magnets in applications such as magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance.
Superconducting joints are crucial for second generation high-temperature superconducting (2G HTS) closed-loop coils that work in the persistent current mode (PCM) operation. Here, we report an efficient approach for superconducting joints of YBa2Cu3O7-sigma (YBCO) coated conductors (CCs). The YBCO layer is etched to and from some microchannels, which serve as oxygen diffusion paths during oxygenation annealing (OA), to accelerate the recovery of critical current (I (c)) of the joined two YBCO layers. The I (c) of the superconducting joint is 118 A at 77 K with an optimized joining temperature and a short OA time (10 h), which is about 82% I (c) of the joined YBCO CCs. The persistent field decay of the closed-loop coil shows a joint resistance (R (j)) of less than 2.2 x 10(-13) omega at 77 K. Two YBCO films epitaxially grown along the c-axis diffuse into each other at the interface and form a dense joining, enabling superconducting current path. This superconducting joint technique can promote the achievement of the PCM operation in 2G HTS magnet applications, such as magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance.
