Problems solved by technology

The method of preparing YBCO superconducting layer using trifluoroacetate (Trifluoro-acetate) as a precursor (TFA-MOD) is prone to defects such as macroscopic cracks due to the decomposition of COO-roots in TFA, film weight reduction and volume shrinkage, etc. The thickness of the YBCO film obtained by this process is limited
However, the coating conductor superconducting layer obtained by moderately increasing polyethylene-ethylene glycol (polyethylene glycol) organic matter in the precursor solvent to increase the film thickness has a serious thickness effect, and its superconducting current-carrying capacity increases with the thickness of the superconducting layer. increase but decrease
At present, the vacuum growth method is mainly pulsed laser deposition (PLD), but it also has some disadvantages. First, the atomic-scale deposition mechanism makes the film growth rate slower; second, there is a film thickness effect, which makes it difficult to make a texture with a thickness of more than 2 μm. superconducting thin film

Abstract

The invention provides a growth method of a coated conductor DyBCO superconductive layer and a DyBCO-coated conductor, and specifically relates to a method of preparing the DyBCO superconductive layer on a metal base band with a cube texture oxide isolating layer, and the method can effectively overcome thickness effect of a YBCO superconductive layer and improve superconductive current-carrying capability. The preparation method utilizing a magnetron sputtering deposition technology comprises the following steps: vacuum-pumping for a reaction chamber until vacuum degree is smaller than and equal to 5*10<-4>Pa, heating the metal base band to 600 DEG C-700 DEG C; 20 minutes-30 minutes later, charging an argon gas and an oxygen gas until gas pressure of a cavity is stabilized to 30 Pa-60 Pa, wherein a proportion of the oxygen gas to the argon gas is 1:2-1:3; taking DyBCO as a target material to start sputtering, cooling to 400 DEG C-450 DEG C after the sputtering is completed, charging the oxygen gas until the gas pressure is maintained at 700 mbar-750 mbar, and carrying out annealing treatment for 40 minutes-80 minutes; and cooling to the room temperature after film-coating is ended to obtain the DyBCO superconductive layer growing on the metal base band with the cube texture oxide isolating layer. The method disclosed by the invention can be utilized to produce the coated conductor with thickness greater than 2mu m of the DyBCO superconductive layer; and the coated conductor does not exist in the prior art.

Background technique [0002] Currently, the power supply is becoming increasingly tight, yet a large amount of power is wasted on traditional cables. If superconducting strips are used, not only these losses can be completely avoided, but also a large amount of metal materials can be saved.
