る。2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional method for manufacturing a superconductor having a crystal composition, a seed crystal or a two-way temperature gradient is not used, or as shown in FIG. May be used. In the former case, the crystal becomes a randomly oriented polycrystal, and in the latter case, the crystal becomes a unidirectionally oriented crystal.

場合、結晶の立体的な座標軸をａ軸、ｂ軸、ｃ軸とする
とき、その原子配列によって、例えばａｂ面の臨界電流
は大きいが、ｃ軸方向は小さくなるという物性の異方性
が生じることがある。In the case of a superconductor having a crystal composition, when the three-dimensional coordinate axes of the crystal are a-axis, b-axis, and c-axis, for example, the critical current in the ab plane is large depending on the atomic arrangement. In some cases, anisotropy of physical properties such that the c-axis direction becomes smaller may occur.

電流が流れやすいようｃ軸を中心軸方向に配向した結晶
組成を持つ超電導体を用いると、多結晶ランダム配向の
場合より大きな配向が得られる。In the case of a conventional superconductor having a polycrystalline random orientation crystal composition, the c-axis is oriented in various directions, so that optimum characteristics cannot be obtained. In a thrust-type superconducting magnetic bearing in which a cylindrical superconductor and a cylindrical permanent magnet whose central axes are on the same line approach each other in the axial direction and receive a repulsive force, the superconducting current flows exclusively in the circumferential direction inside the superconductor. When a superconductor having a crystal composition with the c-axis oriented in the direction of the central axis is used so that a current easily flows, a larger orientation can be obtained than in the case of the polycrystalline random orientation.

It flows circumferentially and axially inside the superconductor. Therefore, in this case, c
It is desirable to orient the axis radially.
【０００６】しかし、種結晶を一個用いる方法や二軸方

に配向させることは困難である。本発明は上記の課題を
解決しようとするものである。However, it is difficult to orient the c-axis of the crystal in the radial direction by a method using one seed crystal or a method of providing a temperature distribution in two axial directions. The present invention seeks to solve the above problems.

A superconductor having good conductivity in both directions can be obtained.

なっている。When the number of seed crystals is one, the whole crystal is oriented in one direction. In this embodiment, a plurality of seed crystals are used. Since the direction of the crystal axis of the seed crystal is set so as to be oriented in a direction, a superconductor in which the c-axis is oriented substantially in the radial direction in a crystal grown from various crystals can be produced.
Therefore, in the superconductor manufactured by the manufacturing method of the present embodiment, current easily flows in the circumferential direction and the axial direction.
