Abstract
FeSeTe coated conductor (CC) tapes have garnered significant attention due to their simple crystal structure, straightforward preparation process, elimination of the need for heat treatment, and the absence of the toxic element arsenic (As). The material's development is progressing favorably, with the successful production of meter-long class tapes. To facilitate its broader application, this study investigates the transverse delamination strength of FeSeTe CC tapes, with a particular focus on the impact of temperature and the location of delamination occurrences. The mechanical delamination tests were conducted using the anvil method, while the microstructure of the fracture surfaces was analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results indicate that the average transverse delamination strength of copper electroplated tapes at room temperature (RT) is 1.77 MPa, which decreases significantly to 0.74 MPa at 77 K, highlighting the substantial impact of low temperature on the mechanical properties of the tapes. TEM analysis revealed that most delamination occurs at the superconductor layer. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing the mechanical performance of FeSeTe CC tapes for practical applications.
期刊介绍:
Physica C (Superconductivity and its Applications) publishes peer-reviewed papers on novel developments in the field of superconductivity. Topics include discovery of new superconducting materials and elucidation of their mechanisms, physics of vortex matter, enhancement of critical properties of superconductors, identification of novel properties and processing methods that improve their performance and promote new routes to applications of superconductivity.
The main goal of the journal is to publish:
1. Papers that substantially increase the understanding of the fundamental aspects and mechanisms of superconductivity and vortex matter through theoretical and experimental methods.
2. Papers that report on novel physical properties and processing of materials that substantially enhance their critical performance.
3. Papers that promote new or improved routes to applications of superconductivity and/or superconducting materials, and proof-of-concept novel proto-type superconducting devices.
The editors of the journal will select papers that are well written and based on thorough research that provide truly novel insights.
