Overview

This text provides an introduction to the microstructures and structural defects in high-temperature supercondutors in a consistent manner. It illustrates the application of modern experimental techniques, as well as theoretical modelling tools in the study of these complex materials. The book also provides the reader with an overview of the efforts involved in developing large-scale (high-current, high-field) applications for high-Tc superconductors.
