Abstract

For the development of YBa 2Cu 3O 7-δ (YBCO)-based coated conductors for electric power applications, it is desirable to electrically and thermally stabilize the high temperature superconducting (HTS) coating during its operation. In addition, use of non-magnetic substrates is an equally important consideration in conductor configurations, in order to reduce ferromagnetic hysteresis energy loss in ac applications. We have developed a conductive buffer layer of La 0.7Sr 0.3MnO 3 (LSMO) on biaxially textured non-magnetic Cu substrates to electrically couple the HTS layer to the underlying metal substrate. Property characterizations of YBCO films on LSMO/Ni/Cu multilayer architecture revealed good electrical connectivity over the entire structure.
