Thin Film Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A thin film engineering lab that fabricates and studies superconducting thin films and REBCO wires.
AboutAbout the lab
Growing thin-film crystals and exploring their properties through microstructure.
The Thin Film Engineering Lab studies crystalline materials such as rare-earth oxide superconducting thin films and REBCO wires, from the perspectives of crystal growth and microstructure control.
Its research also covers joining of crystalline materials, power generation materials, and magnetic field shielding materials.
The materials produced are examined through microstructural analysis by electron microscopy and evaluation of properties such as current-carrying, magnetic, and power generation performance.
Key terms
- REBCO wire
- Superconducting wire made of an oxide containing rare earth, barium, and copper. Because its resistance is zero, it can carry large direct currents without loss
- Multifilamentarization
- Dividing a superconducting layer into several thin filaments. It is considered effective for reducing AC loss
- Perfect diamagnetism
- A property of superconductors. It can be used to make materials that shield magnetic fields
ResearchResearch themes
In this lab, research centers on rare-earth oxide superconducting thin films and REBCO wires, focusing on crystal growth and microstructure control. Power generation materials and magnetic field shielding materials are also studied.
*Illustrative imageThin Films and Wires of Y-Based Oxide Superconductors
For Y-based oxide superconductors, the lab studies thin-film fabrication, crystal growth, alignment control, multifilamentary thin-film wires, low-resistance joints, flux pinning centers, and microstructure control.
*Illustrative imageJoining of Crystalline Materials
On the joining of crystalline materials, the lab studies ultra-low-resistance joints, solid-state diffusion, heat treatment, oxygen doping, joint strength, and control of the joint area.
*Illustrative imagePower Generation Materials
The lab studies thermoelectric power generation and materials for power generation in isothermal environments. The keywords are thin films and microstructure control.
*Illustrative imageMagnetic Field Shielding Materials
