Review of Applications of High-Temperature Superconductors

Since the discovery of high-Tc superconductor oxides in 1986, much research and development have been carried out, and much progress has been made. In the last ten years our efforts have been devoted to the development of materials technologies for these difficult materials, and remarkable progress has been made. This is a great contribution not only for application but also for fundamental research on high-Tc superconductors. In this paper, we will present a review of applications of high-Tc superconductors discovered in the last ten years. At present, it can be said that we are in the transition period from the period of growth to the period of specialization, looking for future applications of high-Tc superconductivity.
