Abstract

Applied wet colloidal nano-processing and thermal, physical, and chemical treatments of superconductor ceramic particles result in sintered 3D-textured crystal conglomerates to produce functionally effective macro-products, such as advanced electrical and electronic articles including superconductive adhesion coated continuous and flexible round wire. AFM images show texture evolution and confirm effectiveness of the developed combination of original ceramic-silicone material formulation and invented crystal organization methods.
