Coated Conductor Cylinders Ltd

3-C’s novel thin film coil fabrication technology

• Multilayer coated conductor films deposited directly on rotating cylindrical formers, patterned for in-situ coil fabrication.

• Higher engineering current densities and lower AC losses – no unwanted substrate.

• Slow texture step if required – once only. Thereafter texture copied layer by layer.

Benefits

• New degrees of freedom for designers via film patterning.

• Co-axial symmetry simplifies film deposition.

• Substrate rotation increases film uniformity.

• Elimination of tape handling problems.

• Process step verifications facilitated.

• Greater structural integrity.

SUBSTANTIAL SIZE AND WEIGHT REDUCTION, HIGHER EFFICIENCIES, LEADING TO LOWER SYSTEMS COSTS.
