Over the past ten years the perception of grain boundaries in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ conductors
has changed greatly. They are now not a problem to be eliminated, but an inevitable and …

Chemical solution deposition (CSD) has recently emerged as a very competitive technique
for obtaining epitaxial films of high quality with controlled nanostructure. In particular, the all …

Networks based on nanoscale resistive switching junctions are considered promising for the
fabrication of neuromorphic computing architectures. To date random networks of …

The developments of coated conductor technology have been reviewed. It is shown that the
critical current density of high-Tcwires can be greatly enhanced by using three-fold …

Percolation theory is often used to model intergranular or transgranular phenomena in
polycrystals by treating low-and high-angle interfaces as strong and weak links, respectively …

We investigate the description of current transfer in polycrystalline superconductors by
percolation theory and its limitations. Various computer models that have been proposed are …

The grain boundary networks of tetragonal and orthorhombic superconductors are shown to
be nonrandom through computer simulations of polycrystalline structures. For biaxially …

This paper presents the results of an experimental and theoretical study of the stability and
protection of small test coil assemblies wound with second-generation (2G) High …

Percolation theory is now standard in the analysis of polycrystalline materials where the
grain boundaries can be divided into two distinct classes, namely “good” boundaries that …

Evidence for the existence of grain boundary (GB) networks with different critical current
densities has been obtained in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− x coated conductor tapes, through distinct …
