Composite superconductor with layers of vanadium material and gallium material
Patent
·
OSTI ID:7099184
A superconductor is described consisting of a vanadium substrate of wire or tape form and an overlying layer of superconductive V/sub 3/Ga intermetallic compound. A method is discussed for manufacturing such superconductor, comprising the steps of forming a layer of intermediate compounds richer in gallium on the surface of a vanadium substrate having said form through a reaction between the vanadium substrate and the surrounding molten gallium at a temperature between 500 and 800/sup 0/C, and of converting said phase to V/sub 3/Ga at a temperature between 600 and 850/sup 0/C. An apparatus best suited for practicing said method in the manufacture of such superconductor is described.
