Superconductor joint

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5334736

A superconductor joint and method of fabrication are described. The ends of two superconductor wires are tinned with a Bi--Pb--Sn base superconductive alloy and brought into contact inside a superconductive sleeve. The assembly is hot pressed at a temperature above the yield point but below the melting point of the solder to deform the sheath about the wires providing contact between the wires.
