The recent progress in new cooling techniques of the high Tc superconductor(HTS) systems is reported and discussed with some practical examples. At the beginning stage of the HTS development in research laboratories, liquid nitrogen(LN$_2$) is the standard medium for an effective cooling. The success of HTS in many different application areas, however, has required a variety of need in the cooling temperature and the cooling capacity with specific design restrictions. While the utilization of alternative liquid cryogens such as liquid neon (LNe) or liquid hydrogen (LH$_2$) has been tired in some of them, even solid cryogens such as solid nitrogen (SN$_2$) or solid hydrogen (SH$_2$) may be another option in special applications. The gaseous helium cooled by a cryogenic refrigerator has also been a good candidate in many cases. One of the best cooling methods for the HTS is the direct conduction-cooling by a closed-cycle refrigerator with no cryogen at all. The refrigeration may be based on Joul-Thomson, Brayton, Stirling, Gifford-McMahon, or pulse tube cycles. The pros and cons of the newly proposed cooling methods are described and some significant design issues are presented.

High Tc Y-Ba-Cu-O Superconductors were fabricated by sintering, sintering + HIP and Hot Pressing. Specimens were sintered at $940^{\circ}C$ and $960^{\circ}C$. In case that sintered specimens were treated by HIP, the relative density was increased 5-6% in comparison with sintered ones. X-ray analysis of each specimens represented orthorhombic phase and Tc measurements showed a sharp drop in the temperature range $95-88^{\circ}K$. The relative density of hot pressed samples was lower than 80%.

High TC Y-Ba-Cu-O Superconductors were fabricated by sintering, sinter+HIP encapsulation. Specimens were sintered at 920$^{\circ}C$∼960$^{\circ}C$. A part of sintered specimens were treated by HIP, and HIP conditions were 150 MPa, 880$^{\circ}C$, 30min under the Ar atmosphere. The relative density of HIP specimens was increased 5∼8% in comparison with sintered one(90∼93% relative density). X-ray analysis represented the orthorhobic-tetragonal phase transition with annealing condition. Tc measurements showed a sharp drp within 3$^{\circ}C$, 91K onset and 89K offset. Transport current density(Jc) of sintered specimens showed typically∼159A/㎤ but that of sinter+HIP encapsulation was decreased to∼89A/㎤ because of insufficient oxygen diffusion, Hardness(H) and Toughness(Kc) were increased to 38GPa; and 2.9 MPam$\^$$\frac{1}{2}$/, respectively.

Current leads of high $T_{c}$ superconductor were fabricated with Bi excess B $i_{2.2}$/S $r_{1.8}$/C $a_{1}$/C $u_{2}$/ $O_{x}$ composition by rapid cooling method. The dimensions of final samples were fixed 3 mm and 8 mm diameter with 50 mm length each To control uniform density the samples were preformed by CIP(Cold Isostatic Press) process and followed by partial or full melting process after raising up to 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 30min. Plate shaped microstructure was clearly observed adjacent to the Ag tube wall and the size of plate was about 100$\mu$m. However the severe destruction of growth orientation was shown in the inner growth part. critical temperature ( $T_{c}$) was about 53~71K after directional growth while Tc was decreased about 77~80 K before directional growth. After directional growth critical current( $I_{c}$) and critical current density( $J_{c}$) in the specimen of 8 mm diameter at 50 K were about 110 A and 280 A/c $m^2$ respectively.pectively.ely.

The main issues for the power application of high Tc superconducting tape are lower AC loss and higher stability conditions. HTS tape has large stability margin by high heat capacity of superconductor itself and high temperature margin. But, it can be damaged by continuous heat generation at quench point, because normal zone propagation velocity by generating heat is very low. Here, we analyze the quench propagation characteristics using finite element method for BSCCO-2223 HTS tape.

In this research, the development of fabrication technique of bulk YBaCuO superconductors for application was studied. In fluence of $BaZrO_3$ addition on magnetization characteristics of thermal pyrolysis textured YBaCuO superconductor was investigated. Fine $BaZrO_3$ particle were dispersed within the textured YBaCuO matrix by means of the thermal pyrolysis processing. Magnetic levitation force for YBaCuO superconductors were obtained using Nd-B-Fe permanent magnet, at 77 K and at the magnetic field from 0 to 5.3 K gauss. In the unadded superconductor and 5 wt% $BaZrO_3$ addition, anomalous magnetization behavior, which is characterized by the intermediate magnetic field, was observed at 77 K. Critical current density was about few hundreds $A/cm^2$ and the magnetic characteristics increased slightly by addition of $BaZrO_3$ powder. Maximum magnetic force was obtained in the YBaCuO superconducting bulk with 3 wt.% $BaZrO_3$ addition.

For the execution of RIETAN program adopting Rietveld Analysis Method, the sample superconductor is made according to the solid state synthesis method at 920.deg. C for 24hrs, and was examined for the optimization of parameters needed to analyze Rietveld method with the input of the measured pattern data after measuring the pattern resulted from the X-ray diffraction. It was proven that the lattice constant of the superconductor which was consisted of Pmmm orthorhombic crystal structure in the analyzed space group correspond to the presented theoretical lattice constant a=3.8887(8).angs., b=3.8238(4).angs., c=11.7079.angs.. Therefore, it was examined and confin-ned that the R factor, which was compensated after analyzing the structure of superconductor resulted from this experimented data with the computer simulation, was refined to $R_{wp}$=8.83[%], $R_{P}$=6.47[%], $R_{I}$=10.08[%], $R_{F}$=7.19[%], $R_{E}$=3.76[%]. On the basis of these experimental data, the significant parameter such as the scale factor(S) and the zero point shift(Z) and FWHM value(U,V,W) were optimized as follows; S=2.0827E-3, Z=0.2146, U=4.2761E-2, V=1.7983E-2, and W=2.6768E-2.2.2.2.2.2.

Superconducting power cable is one of the most promising energy application of high-T$\sub$2/ superconductor(HTS). Thus we investigated previously the electrical and mechanical characteristics on Bi-2223 Ag sheathed tape. And a prototype HTS cable have been designed constructed and tested. In case of 19-filament type transport losses agree with the results of norris theory(strip). The critical current of HTS cable(1, 19-filament) in LN$_2$was 116[A], 240[A] and degradation coefficient(k) was 0.71, 0.73 respectively. In case of 19-filament cable critical current was decreased because of mechanical strain at pitch. And AC loss of HTS cable(19-filament) was 0.7 [W/m] in 240[A] loading

We study the effects of phonon interaction on the superconducting pairing in the high $T_c$ superconductors (HTSC). Using coupled BCS gap equations, we found that phonon interaction can induce a s-wave component to the d-wave gap, mediated by Antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin fluctuations, in the (D+iS) form. However, $T_c$ is not enhanced compared to the pure d-wave pairing without phonon interaction. On the other hand, anisotropic phonon interaction can dramatically enhance the d-wave pairing and $T_c$ itself, together with the AFM spin fluctuation interaction. This ($D_{AFM}+D_{ph}$) type pairing exhibits strongly reduced isotope coefficient despite the large enhancement of $T_c$ by phonon interaction.
