The magnetic properties of heat treated O-series high temperature superconducting (HTS) GdBCO coated conductor (CC) tapes which were formed of Ag/GdBCO/Buffer-layers/Stainless Steel (SS), were investigated by employing a Quantum Design PPMS-14. Using a modified Bean model, the critical current density J_c values have been estimated from the 𝚫m_irr(H) data, which are obtained by measuring the magnetic moment m(H) loops. For a range of intermediate fields, which are interacting or collective flux pinning area, the magnetic flux behaviors were investigated from the relationship J_c ∝ H^-β. In addition, the changes of irreversibility magnetic field H_irr line of heat-treated O-series HTS GdBCO CC tapes were analyzed, according as the annealing temperature under oxygen flowing increases. Both weak and strong break-downs were found by examining the changes of irreversibility magnetic field H_irr lines.

The promising characteristics of 2G high-temperature superconductor (HTS) coated conductor (CC) tapes have made it possible to apply to various electrical device applications. In this study, the mechanical and electromechanical properties of Sn-Cu double layer stabilized GdBCO CC tapes have been characterized. The stress and strain tolerances of $I_c$ in GdBCO CC tapes adopting stainless steel substrate were evaluated using $I_c$-strain measurement at 77 K under both uniaxial tension and monotonic bending conditions. The results were compared to the conventional single Cu layer stabilized CC tape. As a result, the Sn-Cu double layer stabilized GdBCO CC tapes showed somehow lower or comparable electromechanical properties as compared to the Cu stabilized CC tape ones.

The superconducting properties of high temperature superconducting (HTS) GdBCO coated conductor (CC) tape (Ag/GdBCO/Buffer-layers/Stainless Steel) were investigated, specifically a series of samples prepared by vacuum heat treatment (200℃ to 600℃), using a Quantum Design PPMS-14. The critical current density J_c value was obtained by applying the modified Bean model to the irreversible magnetization ∆M_irr(H) data which was estimated from the magnetization M(H) loop. The reduction rates of lnJ_c and T_c values according to the increase of the vacuum annealing temperature T_an were d(lnJ_c)/dT_an = - 0.016 A/(cm²∙℃) and dT_c/dT_an = - 0.24, respectively. We examined the effect of recovery temperature T_re (475℃ to 700℃) and recovery duration time t (0.5 h to 24 h) on the restoration of previously completely lost superconductivity in samples that subsequently received heat treatment in an O₂ gas flow space. All samples were fully restored to superconductivity by heat treatment in an O₂ gas flow space. The recovery temperatures T_re (475℃ to 700℃) and recovery duration times t (0.5 h to 24 h) were both independent of the superconductivity recovery characteristics.
