High Temperature Superconductivity 2

Abstract

Superconductivity represents an extremely complex and interesting quantum-mechanical phenomenon. The macroscopic quantum state of the Cooper pairs results in phenomena like perfect conductivity (zero-resistance ρ=0 at DC current [1] and small microwave surface resistance at high frequencies, e.g. R s =2– 3 μ Ω for YBa2Cu3O7-δ at 1GHz and 77K[2]), perfect diamagmetism (Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect [3]), quantization of trapped magnetic flux and phase correlation of the charge-carrier wavefunction in weak-link structures leading to Josephson effects [4]. Due to these extraordinary properties, superconductivity owns a high potential for improvement of existing applications or even novel applications among others in the field of cryoelectronics, sensor technology, information distribution or energy management. For these applications the zero-resistance (cables, magnets, etc.), the dramatic change of the resistance at the transition (fault current limiter), the small high-frequency surface resistance (filters, antennas, mixers, etc.) or the Josephson effects (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID), single flux quantum logic (SFQ), etc.) are utilized and, thus, carefully studied and analyzed.
