摘要:
Disclosed herein is a method of forming a single-crystalline thin film having excellent crystallinity on a base material without depending on the material for and crystallinity of the base material. In this method, a base material is provided thereon with a mask which can prevent chemical species contained in a vapor phase from adhering to the base material. The base material is continuously moved along arrow A, to deliver a portion covered with the mask into the vapor phase for crystal growth. Thus, a thin film is successively deposited on the portion of the base material, which is delivered from under the mask, from the vapor phase. A crystal growth end is formed on a boundary region between a portion of the base material which is covered with the mask and that which is exposed to the vapor phase, so that a crystal having the same orientation as the growth end is grown on a portion of the base material newly exposed by the movement.

A thin film strongly orienting specific crystal axes is deposited on a polycrystalline or amorphous base material in accordance with laser deposition in a simpler device through a simpler process. A target is irradiated with a laser beam, for forming a thin film in accordance with laser ablation of depositing a substance scattered from the target on a base material. In order to form the thin film, prepared are conditions capable of forming a film orienting a specific crystal axis substantially perpendicularly to the base material in substantially parallel arrangement of the target and the base material. Under the conditions, a film is deposited on the base material which is inclined at a prescribed angle .theta. with respect to the target. It is possible to deposit a film strongly orienting a specific crystal axis in a plane substantially parallel to the base material surface by inclining the base material under the specific film forming conditions.

Provided is an insulated oxide superconducting cable conductor having a high critical current and a high critical current density. The insulated oxide superconducting cable conductor comprises an elongated former, a plurality of tape-shaped multifilamentary oxide superconducting wires which are wound on the former at a bending strain factor of not more than 0.5%, and a spirally wound tape-shaped insulating material covering the tape-shaped multifilamentary oxide superconducting wires. The tape-shaped multifilamentary superconducting wires are superposed on the former in layers, whereby stabilizing materials of the superposed superconducting wires are in contact with each other. The tape-shaped insulating material consists essentially of a material which is contracted at a thermal contraction rate of at least three times that of the tape-shaped multifilamentary wires by cooling from a temperature of 298 K to that of 77 K. The tape-shaped insulating material can apply a pressure to the superposed multifilamentary superconducting wires toward the former while improving electrical contact between the superposed multifilamentary superconducting wires by cooling in employment. The former can be formed of a flexible tube.

Provided is an oxide superconducting conductor consisting of a plurality of metal-covered multifilamentary superconducting wires which are assembled with each other. Bending is applied to the superconducting conductor for improving its critical current density. It is possible to obtain a compact superconducting conductor having higher capacity, since its critical current density is increased by such application of bending.

In order to provide a flexible oxide superconducting cable conductor which is reduced in ac loss, tape-shaped multifilamentary superconducting wires covered with a stabilizing metal are spirally wound on a flexible former. Each of the multifilamentary superconducting wires has a plurality of filaments. The filament contains an oxide superconductor. The superconducting wires are preferably wound on the former at a bending strain of not more than 0.3 %. In winding on the former, a prescribed number of tape-shaped multifilamentary superconducting wires are wound on a core member in a side-by-side manner, to form a first layer. Then, an insulating layer is provided on the first layer. This insulating layer can be formed by an insulating tape. A prescribed number of tape-shaped superconducting multifilamentary wires are wound on the insulating layer in a side-by-side manner, to form a second layer. The insulating layer is adapted to reduce ac loss of the conductors. When the former is made of a metal, it is more preferable to provide an insulating layer between the former and the multifilamentary superconducting wires.
