The hot topics of the critical current properties in YBCO coated conductors and Bi-2223 silver-sheathed tapes are discussed. The dependence of the critical current density in YBCO coated conductors on the superconducting layer thickness is partly associated with the defects nucleated in thicker film

โฆ Synopsis
The critical current density in single core superconducting tapes has been observed to vary across the width of the tape. It was not known whether this was due to the stresses induced by cooling after heat treatment during the manufacture of such tapes. Finite element modelling of the thermal stresses in a single core Ag-(Bi,Pb),Sr,Ca,Cu,O, superconducting tape has been carried out. This shows that the critical current density distribution seen is not due to the stresses within the tape, nor is it an artefact of the experimental methods that have been used to determine the distribution.
