The high energy physics community has been asking for a strong push towards the energy frontier beyond the LHC. Unfortunately, large rings are very expensive and with the current state-of-the-art magnet technology(NbTi, Nb3Sn and Cuprates),the costs are prohibitive. An emerging technology that has a great potential to provide low-cost conductor with ultra-high-field performance(>20T)is based on a new class of HTS materials discovered in 2008:Iron-Based-Superconductors (IBSs or pnictides). In view of future High Field Magnet(HFM) applications, this project is intended to the development of inexpensive high-Tc Iron-Based-Superconductor (IBS) wire with high critical current density(Jc > 105 A/cm2 at > 20T/4.2K).
