Ten years after Georg Bed-norz and Alex Müller discovered the first high-temperature superconductors, and nine years after superconductivity was found with a transition temperature higher than that of liquid nitrogen, considerable progress is being made in bulk applications of high-temperature superconductors. Electronics applications and thin-film technology are even more advanced. (See PHYSICS TODAY, March 1995, page 20.) Among the first bulk applications are: current leads, fault current limiters, and wire for power transmission cables.
