Description
本発明は、薄膜超電導線材用金属基材とその製造方法および前記薄膜超電導線材用金属基材を用いて作製された薄膜超電導線材に関する。
The present invention relates to a metal substrate for a thin film superconducting wire, a method for producing the same, and a thin film superconducting wire produced using the metal substrate for a thin film superconducting wire.
高温超電導体の発見以来、ケーブル、コイル、マグネットなどの電力機器への応用を目指した薄膜超電導線材の開発が精力的に行われている。このような薄膜超電導線材は、一般に、リール to リール方式により、長尺のテープ状金属基板の表面に、配向性のセラミックス層を中間層として形成して金属基材とし、さらに、中間層の上に、酸化物超電導層、安定化層を順次積層することにより得られている(特許文献1、2)。
Since the discovery of high-temperature superconductors, thin-film superconducting wires have been vigorously developed for application to power devices such as cables, coils, and magnets. Such a thin film superconducting wire is generally formed on a surface of a long tape-shaped metal substrate by using a reel-to-reel method to form an oriented ceramic layer as an intermediate layer to form a metal base material. In addition, an oxide superconducting layer and a stabilizing layer are sequentially laminated (Patent Documents 1 and 2).
上記において、中間層である配向性のセラミックス層を形成するために用いられる材料はCeO2やYSZ等のセラミックスであり、金属基板と比べて熱膨張係数が遙かに小さく、金属基板との密着性や結晶性を考慮して、スパッタ装置などを用いて、高温で成膜処理することにより金属基板上へ中間層として形成される。
In the above, the material used to form the orientational ceramic layer as the intermediate layer is ceramic such as CeO 2 or YSZ, and its thermal expansion coefficient is much smaller than that of the metal substrate, and it is in close contact with the metal substrate. In consideration of the property and crystallinity, the intermediate layer is formed on the metal substrate by performing film formation at a high temperature using a sputtering apparatus or the like.
中間層が形成された金属基板、即ち金属基材は、その後、室温まで冷却されるが、この際、前記した熱膨張係数の相違により、金属基板と中間層との間で熱収縮差を生じるため、図5に示すように、中間層を上にした場合逆U字状に反りを生じる。なお、図5において、10は金属基板、20は中間層であり、Aは反りによる変形高さを示している。
The metal substrate on which the intermediate layer is formed, that is, the metal base material is then cooled to room temperature. At this time, a difference in thermal expansion coefficient is caused between the metal substrate and the intermediate layer. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, when the intermediate layer is turned up, warping occurs in an inverted U shape. In FIG. 5, reference numeral 10 denotes a metal substrate, 20 denotes an intermediate layer, and A denotes a deformation height due to warpage.
この反りが生じた中間層は、酸化物超電導層を成膜する際に、膜厚ムラを生じさせる原因ともなり、薄膜超電導線材において臨界電流値Icのバラツキを大きくさせる恐れがある。
The intermediate layer in which this warp has occurred may cause unevenness in film thickness when the oxide superconducting layer is formed, and there is a possibility that the variation of the critical current value Ic is increased in the thin film superconducting wire.
また、このような反りがあると、長手方向に曲げることが困難となるため、薄膜超電導線材を製造する際のハンドリングなどに問題が生じる。
Also, if there is such a warp, it becomes difficult to bend in the longitudinal direction, which causes a problem in handling when manufacturing a thin film superconducting wire.
そこで、本発明は、反りの発生が抑制されて、酸化物超電導層を成膜する際に、膜厚ムラの発生がなく、Icのバラツキが抑制され、また、ハンドリングなどに問題が生じない薄膜超電導線材用金属基材とその製造方法、および高いIcの薄膜超電導線材を提供することを課題とする。
Therefore, the present invention provides a thin film in which the occurrence of warpage is suppressed, the occurrence of unevenness in film thickness is not caused when the oxide superconducting layer is formed, the variation in Ic is suppressed, and the handling is not problematic. It is an object of the present invention to provide a metal substrate for a superconducting wire, a manufacturing method thereof, and a thin film superconducting wire having a high Ic.

A metal base material for a thin film superconducting wire, wherein a ratio D / L of a maximum deformation height D in the width direction to a width L is 0.02 or less.
本請求項の発明においては、金属基板の両面に、中間層を形成しているため、室温まで冷却する際、各面に形成された中間層と金属基板との間で生じる熱収縮差がバランスよく相殺されて、金属基材の反りの発生を抑制することができる。
In the invention of this claim, since the intermediate layer is formed on both surfaces of the metal substrate, when cooling to room temperature, the difference in thermal shrinkage generated between the intermediate layer formed on each surface and the metal substrate is balanced. It is well offset and the occurrence of warpage of the metal substrate can be suppressed.
そして、本発明者の検討によれば、幅方向における最大変形高さDの、幅Lに対する比率D/Lで定義される反りの程度(反り率)を0.02以下に制御した場合、このような反りの発生が抑制された金属基材の上には、膜厚ムラの発生が抑制された酸化物超電導層を成膜することができ、Icのバラツキの発生が抑制された薄膜超電導線材を提供することができることが分かった。そして、反りが抑制されているため、ハンドリングなどに問題が生じない。
According to the study of the present inventor, when the degree of warpage (warpage rate) defined by the ratio D / L of the maximum deformation height D in the width direction to the width L is controlled to 0.02 or less, An oxide superconducting layer in which the occurrence of film thickness unevenness is suppressed can be formed on the metal base material in which the occurrence of such warpage is suppressed, and the thin film superconducting wire in which the occurrence of Ic variation is suppressed. Found that can provide. And since curvature is suppressed, a problem does not arise in handling etc.
請求項2に記載の発明は、

It is a manufacturing method of the metal substrate for thin film superconducting wires according to
An intermediate layer is simultaneously formed on both surfaces of a metal substrate to produce a metal substrate for a thin film superconducting wire, which is a method for producing a metal substrate for a thin film superconducting wire.
中間層の形成は、片面ずつ行うこともできるが、中間層の形成を金属基板の両面で同時に行うことにより、片面ずつ中間層の形成を行った場合のような金属基材の熱履歴が残らないため、金属基材の反りの発生をより一層抑制することができる。
The formation of the intermediate layer can be performed one side at a time. However, by forming the intermediate layer on both sides of the metal substrate at the same time, the thermal history of the metal substrate remains as if the intermediate layer was formed one side at a time. Therefore, the occurrence of warpage of the metal substrate can be further suppressed.
また、中間層を同時に形成する方法の場合、同一の材料を用いて、同一の装置、同一の雰囲気条件の下で一連の処理として行うことができるため、効率的な処理が可能となる。
Further, in the case of the method of forming the intermediate layer at the same time, since the same material can be used as a series of processes under the same apparatus and the same atmospheric conditions, an efficient process is possible.

An intermediate layer having a thickness can be formed.
