MOCVD tool for Reel to Reel Superconducting Films
Posted on February 13, 2006
Structured Materials Industries, Inc. (SMI) reports that it has delivered a MOCVD tool for producing thin superconducting films. The system is scaled for depositing films on tapes up to a kilometer in length by several centimeters width. Such superconducting tapes are expected to be key in developing more-efficient power generation and transmission systems, motors and magnetic levitation trains among other applications. Critical in developing the system has been achieving long term filament lifetime in the >1000C regime in an oxidizing environment.
The technology development was funded by the Missile Defense Agency in an SBIR Phase I/II programs with the Air Force Research Laboratory directing continued operation and process development.
