Abstract
Method of making a low resistivity electrical connection between an electrical conductor and an iron pnictide superconductor involves connecting the electrical conductor and superconductor using a tin or tin-based material therebetween, such as using a tin or tin-based solder. The superconductor can be based on doped AFe2As2, where A can be Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu or combinations thereof for purposes of illustration only.
Claims16
A method of making an electrical connection between a metallic electrical conductor and an iron pnictide superconductor, comprising connecting the electrical conductor and superconductor using a tin or tin-based material disposed therebetween.
An electrical connection between a metallic electrical conductor and an iron pnictide superconductor wherein the connection comprises a tin or tin-based material disposed between the electrical conductor and the superconductor.
