Substrate and method for the formation of continuous magnesium diboride and doped magnesium diboride wire

Patent ·
OSTI ID:919881
A chemically doped boron coating is applied by chemical vapor deposition to a silicon carbide fiber and the coated fiber then is exposed to magnesium vapor to convert the doped boron to doped magnesium diboride and a resultant superconductor.
