Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an element for magnetic shielding which is capable of preventing the generation of cracks due to thermal stress, exhibiting excellent function for magnetic shielding, and has superior mechanical strength, by constituting the element, of an element main body formed of oxide superconducting material and carbon fiber buried in the element main body. CONSTITUTION:The title element is constituted of an element main body 1 and short fiber 2 made of carbon buried in the element main body 1. For the element main body 1, the following mixture is used; for example, yttrium oxide powder, barium carbonate powder and copper oxide powder are mixed with a mole ratio of 0.5:1.0:3.0. This mixture is expanded in a plate type, and compression force is applied to it to form a dense plate body. By heat-treating the plate body in an atmosphere of oxygen, an oxide superconductor layer is synthesized. The short fiber 2 is added at the time of obtaining the powder mixture.

When a magnetic shielding device is constructed using oxide-based superconducting materials, manufacturing costs can be reduced compared to when a magnetic shielding device is constructed using alloy-based or intermetallic compound-based superconducting materials, and liquid nitrogen, which is inexpensive and easy to handle, is used. As a result, maintenance costs can also be reduced. For this reason, there have recently been proposals to construct magnetic shielding devices incorporated into high-field magnetic resonance imaging devices and the like using oxide-based superconducting materials. Oxide-based superconducting materials are usually made by subjecting powder raw materials to heat treatment in oxygen. Therefore, when making a magnetic shielding element, the powder raw material may be expanded into a plate shape, compressed to become dense, and then heat treated in an oxygen atmosphere.
