Abstract:Bending behavior of Bi2223/Ag superconducting composite tapes, and the influence of the bending damages on critical superconducting current Ic and n-value that is a measure for the sharpness of the transition from super- to normal conduction, were studied. Following damages, responsible to the reduction in critical current at high bending strains, were observed. (i) Transverse and (ii) longitudinal crackings of the filaments, (iii) interfacial debonding between filaments and silver, and (iv) buckling in compre… Show more
