Abstract:
1. A superconducting element, the element comprising: a substrate tape, said substrate tape having a first end section with a first upper surface, a second end section having a second upper surface and a central section disposed between said first and said second end sections, said central section having at least one elongated opening dividing said central section into at least a first HTS strip having a first strip upper surface and a second HTS strip having a second strip upper surface; a buffer layer deposited on said first upper surface, said second upper surface, said first strip upper surface and said second strip upper surface; a high temperature superconducting (HTS) layer deposited on said buffer layer; a first protection layer deposited on said HTS layer; and a shunt layer, said shunt layer enveloping all surfaces of said HTS strips, wherein said shunt layer comprises a basic conductive layer and a second protection layer said second protection layer being provided between said first protection layer and said basic conductive layer.
