Normal zone propagation along superconducting films deposited on wide substrates

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

The propagation of a normal zone in a long superconducting film on a dielectric or conducting substrate is analyzed analytically. The obtained expressions for the propagation velocity allow one to analyze the effect of the thermal resistance between the film and substrate and the width of the substrate. The results are expended into the cases of the normal zone propagation in a meander and in parallel films and can be approximately applied to multifilamentary coated superconductors.
