Fundamentals of superconductivity
Abstract
In this chapter, the fundamental concepts of superconductor phenomena are introduced to provide a foundation for the remaining chapters on high-temperature superconductor power equipment. The discussion focuses on type I and type II superconductors, their corresponding magnetic behaviors, low-temperature superconductors, and high-temperature superconductors. The chapter is based on publications by A.C. Rose-Innes, E.H. Roderick, and C. Kittel, supplemented by significant newer material arising from the novel properties of high-temperature superconductors.
