Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the superconductivity characteristic by adjusting, mixing, and dissolving the IIIa group element and alkaline earth metal element at the preset composition ratio, heat-treating it in the O2 or halogen gas and crushing it into powder, mixing it with the copper or copper oxide powder, filling it into a sheath material, end shrinking in diameter and heat-treating it. CONSTITUTION:The preset element, e.g., a mixture of La:Sr=1.5:0.5, is arc- dissolved to form an La-Sr alloy, which is crushed. The crushed material is heat-treated at a high temperature in the O2 or halogen atmosphere, thus O or halogen atoms are filled in void grid points in the crystal grid of the mixture, and a material excellent in the superconductivity characteristic is generated. Next, the CuO powder is mixed with the crushed material at the ratio of Cu:(La, Sr)=1:1, the mixture is filled into a stainless steel tube or the like, and a copper tube is combined on the outer periphery. The combined body is applied with the extruding and wire drawing process to form a wire rod, Cu grains are deposited to each other, La and Sr are diffused to the periphery and reacted, an electric wire of an (La, Sr)CuO superconducting material is obtained, and the strength is high due to Cu grains serving as a matrix.
