To use or not to use cool superconductors?
A. Gurevich
TL;DR
This paper discusses the challenges and technological complexities involved in utilizing high-temperature superconductors like cuprates and Fe-based materials for practical applications.
Contribution
It highlights the conflicting physics and materials requirements that hinder the practical use of high-temperature superconductors.
Findings
High critical temperature alone is insufficient for applications.
Technological complexity limits the use of cuprates and Fe-based superconductors.
Addressing conflicting requirements is essential for practical superconductivity applications.
Abstract
The high critical temperature and magnetic field in cuprates and Fe-based superconductors are not enough to assure applications at higher temperatures. Making these superconductors useful involves complex and expensive technologies to address many conflicting physics and materials requirements.
