YBCO 4-Point Probe
YBCO 4-Point Probe
TEL-390 — $350
The YBCO 4-Point Probe from TEL-Atomic makes it easy to measure the resistivity of a sample of superconducting tape. YBCO (Yttrium Barium Copper Oxide) was the first superconductor discovered with a critical temperature over 77K (the temperature of liquid nitrogen). The resistivity drops abruptly to 0 at about 93K. YBCO is a rigid ceramic and is not generally useful for practical applications due to its brittle nature. Superconducting tape consists of layers of copper and superconductor that creates a flexible and useful superconducting wire.
The package contains approximately 200mm of YBCO superconducting tape wrapped around an aluminum core. A PT-1000 temperature sensor is also included. This allows a precise measurement of the superconductors critical temperature.
