A magnesium diboride superconducting wire has excellent conduction property and stability. The superconductive connection of the magnesium diboride superconducting wire covered with a superconducting coating layer and a same or different kind of another superconducting wire are connected in a metal tube filled with a solder by way of the superconductive coating layer.

Connecting structure for magnesium diboride superconducting wire and a method of connecting the same

A high reliability emission source is constructed to secure the ohmic contact between a carbon nanotube and an electrically conductive base material, so as to ensure sufficient joining strength, and to provide for easy beam shaft adjustment. An electron microscope for realizing high resolution, high brightness, a reduction in sample damage due to a reduction in acceleration voltage, a reduction in cost and compactness, and an electron beam drawing device for realizing high definition, high efficiency, a reduction in cost and compactness in comparison with the conventional device, is achieved by using this high reliability emission source. In the emission source, the carbon nanotube is attached to the tip central portion of the electrically conductive base material through an electrically conductive joining material or an organic material by carbonization-processing the organic material by heat treatment, or by diffusive joining.

An electrode device for an electric field emission electron source suitable for duty drive having an element size of 50 &mgr;m or smaller and an electrode device fabricating method. A glass film used as catalyst of forming carbon nanotubes is formed on a substrate to form metal catalyst at nano meter level and control dispersion. Carbon nanotubes are dispersively formed on the metal catalyst and a metal coat is formed on the surface of carbon nanotubes to improve electric pulse response characteristics.

Method for fabricating electrode device

A distributor for use in an electronic ignition system, in which a rotating electrode is formed of a metallic material, and a dielectric material is provided connected thereto, contacting through a very small area at a portion apart from the sparking surface of the metallic member. The dielectric constant of the dielectric member is larger than that of a rotating body holding the rotating electrode.
