摘要
The second-generation high-temperature superconductor tape(2G-HTS,also known as a coated conductor)based on REBaCuO(REBa_(2)Cu_(3)O_(7-δ))exhibits high current density and potential cost-effective price/performance,compared with conventional superconducting materials.Using commercial 2G-HTS tapes,more than a dozen cable vendors had been manufacturing REBCO cables,such as the latest kilometer-class REBCO cable,which was incorporated into a civil grid on December 2021,as part of the recordbreaking 35-kV-voltage superconductor cable demonstration project in downtown Shanghai.This paper describes the development of HTS-coated conductors,then outlines the various technological routes for their preparation,reviews the artificial flux pinning of coated conductors,and finally summarizes the technological breakthroughs,the latest research advances,and provides an outlook on their application prospects.
