Zusammenfassung:Coils for superconducting magnets and methods of making coils for superconducting magnets and controlling the turn-to-turn contact resistance of coils. The coils include a REBCO superconducting tape coated with a layer of tin-lead solder, co-wound with an oxidized stainless steel tape. The inclusion of tin-lead solder on the REBCO tape and a layer of oxidation on the stainless steel tape advantageously allow for tuning of the turn-to-turn contact resistance of the coil, and advantageously mitigates the effect of repeated pressure cycling on the turn-to-turn contact resistance.
