REBCO
Glossary term: REBCO
01 Executive_Summary
Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide — a family of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes used in compact, high-field magnets for fusion reactors. REBCO tapes can carry high current densities at 77 K (liquid nitrogen temperature) and maintain superconductivity at fields above 25 Tesla. REBCO magnets enable the compact size of modern fusion devices including the Compact Fusion Reactor concept.
