Abstract
A multifilamentary oxide superconducting wire having a low aspect ratio and a relatively high critical current density, and being suitable for a stranded wire. In order to produce such a wire, a tape-shaped, multifilamentary oxide superconducting wire prepared by the powder-in-tube process is cut along its length. The resulting multifilamentary oxide superconducting wires have a width smaller than that of the tape-shaped wire. The resulting wires typically have an aspect ratio of one to two. The filaments of the resulting wires are in the shape of a ribbon extending in the longitudinal direction, and arranged substantially parallel to each other and in layers. The filaments have an aspect ratio greater than two. The filaments inside include a filament having a portion substantially not covered with the stabilizer.
