Method of joining superconductor materials

Abstract

A method of joining superconductor materials is described. A microwave chamber including a first heat absorption plate and a second heat absorption plate corresponding to the first absorption plate is provided. A first superconductor material and a second superconductor material are disposed between the first heat absorption plate and the second heat absorption plate in the microwave chamber. The first superconductor material and the second superconductor material have an overlapping region therebetween, and a pressure is applied to the first heat absorption plate and the second heat absorption plate. Microwave power is supplied to the microwave chamber. The first heat absorption plate and the second heat absorption plate transform the microwave power into thermal energy so as to join the first superconductor material and the second superconductor material at the overlapping region.
