Toward Superconducting Critical Current by Design

A new critical‐current‐by‐design paradigm is presented. It aims at predicting the optimal defect landscape in superconductors for targeted applications by elucidating the vortex dynamics responsible for the bulk critical current. To this end, critical current measurements on commercial high‐temperat...

Zusammenfassung:A new critical‐current‐by‐design paradigm is presented. It aims at predicting the optimal defect landscape in superconductors for targeted applications by elucidating the vortex dynamics responsible for the bulk critical current. To this end, critical current measurements on commercial high‐temperature superconductors are combined with large‐scale time‐dependent Ginzburg–Landau simulations of vortex dynamics.
