... shaped like a disk or a pancake. The tape consists of a thin, flat strip of superconducting material sandwiched between two strips of stainless steel. In the bifilar fault-current limiter design, ...
... timing of the testing phase for ARCS was ideal because in the preceding months, a new class of superconducting materials – pnictide compounds based on iron and arsenic – was discovered. This allowed ...
... to probe iron-arsenic compounds, the 'hottest' new find in the race to explain and develop superconducting materials. Rob McQueeney, an Ames Laboratory physicist, was part of that team whose findings ...
