Oxide superconducting conductor and its production method

A chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor for forming a film at the surface of a base material, and a production method for an oxide superconductive conductor using this CVD reactor, are disclosed. The CVD reactor is provided with a processing chamber, a material gas supply mechanism which supplies material gas into the processing chamber, and a gas exhaust mechanism which vents gas from inside the processing chamber. The processing chamber is divided by partitions into a base material introduction section, a reaction chamber, and a base material guide-out section. A base material transit opening is formed in each partition, and a base material conveyance region is formed inside the reaction chamber passing through the base material introduction section, the reaction chamber and the base material guide-out section. The material gas supply mechanism is provided with a material gas supply source and a gas disperser and is connected to the material gas supply source. The gas exhaust mechanism is equipped with gas exhaust holes provided at both sides of the base material conveyance region opposite the side where the gas diffuser is disposed, and with a gas venter connected to the gas exhaust holes. The gas diffuser and the gas exhaust holes oppose each other with the base material conveyance region therebetween. The CVD reactor may be used to produce an oxide superconductive conductor by forming a superconductive layer at the surface of a base material while adjusting the flow of gas around the base material.
