This high grade powder is the starting material for manufacturing a number of bulk HtSC ceramic products, including sputtering targets for HtSC thin films. Applications include materials for tapes and wires, thick film paste, and plasma spray powders.
The primary phase of the material is Bi:2223 and conversion to nearlt 100% phase pure 2223 is accomplished during the final heat treatment. The material is available in two grades of crushed agglomerate and as a fine milled powder with bulk densities of 1.4 - 2.0 g/cm³. The standard stoichiometry is:

Special solders produced by ZerRes Corporation include #HIS and #BIE brands that produce reliable contacts and joints between any combination of bulk HTSC ceramics, NbTi/NbSn, and conventional conductor metals. | |
|
Ultra thin strips of Zirconia (0.1 and 0.2 mm thick) for deposition of HTSC materials. | |

| A special grade of nearly phase pure 2223 powder that can be formed into wires, discs, rods, tubes, rings, pots, and vessels. By processing according to well developed procedures, our material will offer improved properties, namely density, magnetic flux pinning and critical current. The critical current of this material is up to 108°K and can have a critical current of up to 4000 Amps/cm². At 60°K and Bex of 1 tesla, the critial current is still about 1000 Amps/cm². | |
| HtSC Tubes for Superconducting current leads manufactured from Bi:2223 are available in a number of standard and custom sizes with current carrying capabilities of up to 1500 amps. Available in silvered ends for low contact resistance. | |
| Closed and open end tubes for magnetic shielding of SQUIDs and other sensitive devices. Standard sizes have a large inner diameter with the geometric factor of magnetic shield i/d (inner length / diameter) that is higher than 5. Wall thicknesses are approximately 2mm (0.080") and have a shielding factor at 77 °K of more than 106. Shielding magnetic flux density (Bsh) at 77°K of 10mT typically is obtained, with better values obtainable to meet your exact needs. | |
| These materials can be processed into tubes and other shapes for applications such as HtSC current limiters. | |
| High temperature superconducting power leads for connecting low temperature magnets can save 66% of the helium boil off or heat leak into the 4.2° K region. Standard unit current ranges from 100 to 250 amps. For amperage of 1000 - 5000+ amps, several standard units are bundled together. Leads are fabricated to meet your specifications for length and warm and cold end connections. | ||

| Our SQUIDs are based on YBCO high-Tc superconductors using SrTiO3 substrates and can operate at 77° K. The sensitivity of magnetometers using our SQUIDs are one or two orders of magnitude better than magnetometers using conventional technology. | ||
| YBCO and TBCCO thin films on LaAlO3 and sapphire up to 2" diameter. Specific devices are available. | |
| Glass encapsulated for rugged and reliable performance, these resistors are precisely calibrated in the temperature ranges of: 0.01°K to 10°K and 1.6°K to 300°K. Applications include superconducting accelerators, MHD-generators, cryostats, and superconducting magnets. | |
| Self contained 4000 Series QUANTUMCOOLER is a fully automatic system designed to efficiently condense gaseous helium back into the liquid phase, available either as a liquefier or re-liquefier. | |
| A complete magnetometer system based on thin film High Tc superconductor RF SQUID sensor. The system includes complete electronics for the SQUID, magnetic shielding, cryostat, probe and sample holder. The complete system or any of its parts can be used for SQUID development or testing. | |
