Additively-manufactured monocrystalline YBCO superconductor

Abstract Single-crystal microstructures enable high-performance YBa2Cu3O7-x superconductors which are however limited to simple shapes due to their brittleness. Additive manufacturing can fabricate YBa2Cu3O7-x superconductor with complex shapes, albeit with a polycrystalline microstructure. Here, we...
