Title: Low resistivity contact to iron-pnictide superconductors

Abstract

Method of making a low resistivity electrical connection between an electrical conductor and an iron pnictide superconductor involves connecting the electrical conductor and superconductor using a tin or tin-based material therebetween, such as using a tin or tin-based solder. The superconductor can be based on doped AFe.sub.2As.sub.2, where A can be Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu or combinations thereof for purposes of illustration only.

High current density, low contact resistance wide bandgap contacts

Patent Douglas, Erica Ann; Baca, Albert G.; Reza, Shahed; ...

A high current density, low contact resistance contact for wide bandgap (WBG) or ultra-wide bandgap materials (UWBG) is disclosed. The contact is lithographically formed so that a total perimeter length of the contact structure is at least twice the length of the side of a contact pad closest to the gate in a high electron mobility transistor (HEMT). The contact structure may take the form of a plurality of columns having various cross-sectional shapes, or may take the form of a convoluted geometrical shape, such as a comb-like, serpentine, or spiral shape. The depth of the contact structure permits directmore » « less

Near net shape bulk laminated silicon iron electric steel for improved electrical resistance and low high frequency loss

Patent Cui, Jun; Ouyang, Gaoyuang; Jensen, Brandt; ...

The invention involves producing discontinuous, flake-shaped particles of a soft magnetic material, coating the flake-shaped particles with an electrically insulating coating, and consolidating the coated flaked-shaped particles to form a soft magnetic bulk shape. The consolidated bulk shape can comprise a layer or a simple or complex 3D magnet part shape, which has a consolidated layered microstructure that includes laminated soft magnetic regions that are substantially encapsulated by an electrical insulating layer to increase the resistivity of soft magnetic material, especially when used in silicon iron magnet parts.
