Exploration of new superconductors and functional materials, and fabrication of superconducting tapes and wires of iron pnictides

This review shows the highlights of a 4-year-long research project supported by the Japanese Government to explore new superconducting materials and relevant functional materials. The project found several tens of new superconductors by examining ∼1000 materials, each of which was chosen by Japanese...
