The application of dc magnetic field to a 2G high temperature superconducting (HTS) tape can reduce the critical current Ic of the tape, without driving the material normal. This property can be used in the development of HTS switching elements through so-called Jc(B) switching. The design of a dc magnetic field switch is reported, in both singl…

High temperature superconducting magnets offer a novel pathway to magnetic confinement fusion energy generation. Reactor-scale fusion devices require tens of kA of current to generate large toroidal fields for magnetic confinement. Operating HTS magnets at kA-current levels is difficult due to unavoidable joint resistances that require active dr…
