Abstract

This review examines the potential for yttrium barium copper oxide cuprate in various industrial and production applications, particularly considering its high-temperature superconducting properties. Despite the inherent advantages of high-temperature superconductivity, the practical deployment of YBCO and similar materials is constrained by challenges such as achieving operational temperatures conducive to widespread industrial adoption and overcoming economic and technical hurdles in large-scale production and maintenance. To fully leverage YBCO's capabilities, research efforts must intensify on developing methods for enhancing critical temperatures and current densities, alongside improving the economic viability of its synthesis and fabrication.
