The present invention relates to a superconductor and a method of manufacturing the same. The superconductor comprises: a substrate having a tape shape that extends in a first direction and having surfaces which are defined as a top surface, a bottom surface, and both side surfaces; a superconductive layer positioned on the top surface of the substrate; a first stabilizing layer disposed on the superconductive layer and containing a first metal; a protective layer disposed on the first stabilizing layer and containing a second metal which is different from the first metal; and an first alloy layer disposed between the stabilizing layer and the protective layer and containing the first and second metals.
