Abstract
A method of manufacturing a superconductor consisting of different materials by introducing into material of an element or an alloy at least one element of another group or a compound, whereupon the diameter of the assembly, if desired, is reduced and subsequently a superconductive layer of said elements is formed by thermal treatment.
Claims14
A method of manufacturing a superconductor consisting of different materials which comprises introducing into a first component selected from the elements or alloys of the elements of Group VB of the Periodic Table, a second component containing an accelerator and consisting essentially of an element selected from the Group consisting of Group IIIA and Group IVA of the Periodic Table, or a second component containing an accelerator and consisting essentially of a mixture of (1) a compound or alloy of a Group VB element with an element selected from the Group consisting of Group IIIA and Group IVA of the Periodic Table with (2) an element selected from the Group consisting of Group IIIA and Group IVA of the Periodic Table, and thermally treating said materials to produce a superconductor having a superconductive boundary layer.
