Superconductors at the Nanoscale : From Basic Research to Applications
Roger Wördenweber, Victor Moshchalkov, Simon Bending, Francesco Tafuri
By covering theory, design, and fabrication of nanostructured superconducting materials, this monograph is an invaluable resource for research and development. Examples are energy saving solutions, healthcare, and communication technologies. Key ingredients are nanopatterned materials which help to improve the superconducting critical parameters and performance of superconducting devices, and lead to novel functionalities.
