Superconducting Physics & Applications Laboratory

DEPARTMENT OF SUPERCONDUCTIVITY, INSTITUTE OF METAL PHYSICS OF NAS OF UKRAINE

The SPA Lab works in two main directions of superconducting research: the investigation of the fundamental physical properties of high temperature superconductors and related compounds (ARPES unit); and the development of high-end large scale HTSC applications which utilize the peculiarities of magnetic flux dynamics in HTSC (Levitation unit).
