Abstract:
Embodiments of a high temperature electromagnetic coil assembly are provided, as are embodiments of a method for fabricating such a high temperature electromagnetic coil assembly. In one embodiment, the high temperature electromagnetic coil assembly includes a coiled anodized aluminum wire and an electrically-insulative, high thermal expansion ceramic body in which the coiled anodized aluminum wire is embedded. The electrically-insulative, high thermal expansion ceramic body has a coefficient of thermal expansion greater than 10 parts per million per degree Celsius and less than the coefficient of thermal expansion of the coiled anodized aluminum wire.

Abstract:
Embodiments of an electromagnetic coil assembly are provided, as are methods for the manufacture of an electromagnetic coil assembly. In one embodiment, the method for manufacturing an electromagnetic coil assembly includes the steps of providing a braided aluminum lead wire having a first end portion and a second end portion, brazing the first end portion of the braided aluminum lead wire to a first electrically-conductive interconnect member, and winding a magnet wire into an electromagnetic coil. The second end portion of the braided aluminum lead wire is joined to the magnet wire after the step of brazing.
