Introduction to High Temperature Superconductors

Course No. E-1006

Credit: 1 PDH

Course Fee: $28.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Danny Graves, P.E.

 

Overview

In this introductory course, the student will become familiar with high temperature superconductors, the Meissner effect, the zero resistance effect, availability of experimentation kits, how to make a superconductor from scratch, applications for superconductors, and superconductor patent information. By possibly implementing existing superconductor technology in devices such as electromagnets, the student can increase performance and shrink size versus conventional conductors.

This introductory course is intended for any professional working with electrical, electronic, or magnetic equipment that could possibly benefit from the use of high temperature superconductor technology. It is also intended for the engineer or scientist that has a general interest in superconductor technology and would like to know the basics.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • History of superconductors and the development of high temperature superconductors
  • How conductors become superconductors
  • Common materials used for superconductors and their properties
  • How to construct a simple superconductor using readily available materials
  • Magnetic levitation above a superconductor using both the Meissner Effect and the zero resistance effect
  • Applications and potential applications for superconductors
  • Special provisions for obtaining a patent related to superconductivity materials, manufacture, or applications
