An MOCVD system fabricates high quality superconductor tapes with variable thicknesses. The MOCVD system can include a gas flow chamber between two parallel channels in a housing. A substrate tape is heated and then passed through the MOCVD housing such that the gas flow is perpendicular to the tape's surface. Precursors are injected into the gas flow for deposition on the substrate tape. In this way, superconductor tapes can be fabricated with variable thicknesses, uniform precursor deposition, and high critical current densities.

A method for manufacturing a high conductive Al alloy wire without conducting an annealing process includes: providing an Al alloy rod comprising 0.01 parts by weight to 0.08 parts by weight of Fe, Fe:Si=2 to 3:1 of Si and the balance Al and inevitable impurities, based on 100 parts by weight of an entire A1350 alloy; conform-extruding the Al alloy rod by passing through a dies of a conform extruder having a polygonal shaped structure to form a polygonal shaped Al alloy wire; cooling the extruded Al alloy wire to room temperature; and winding the cooled Al alloy wire using a winder.

Provided are a stretchable wire tape for a textile that can maintain high levels in all of stretchability, electrical conductivity, durability, an insulating property, and design and can also have a reduced production cost, wearable devices, and a method for producing textiles having wires. The stretchable wire tape for the textile includes a stretchable electrically conductive wire, and stretchable insulating films each including a first face and a second face opposite to the first face, the stretchable insulating films being bonded to opposite sides of the stretchable electrically conductive wire on their first faces. Since the stretchable insulating films are bonded to the opposite sides of the stretchable electrically conductive wire via bonding layers, durability and an insulating property can be secured while stretchability and electrical conductivity of the electrically conductive wire can be maintained, and design can also be improved.

A post-fitting shield member to be post-fitted with an electric wire is a plated fiber bundle wound in coil form and formed by performing metal plating on a high-strength fiber member. A manufacturing method of a shielded wire includes an insertion step of inserting an electric wire into the post-fitting shield member having a coil shape; a first fixing step of fixing one end portion of the post-fitting shield member into which the electric wire was inserted in the insertion step; an expansion step of expanding the post-fitting shield member that was fixed in the first fixing step toward the side of its other end portion; and a second fixing step of fixing the other end portion of the post-fitting shield member that was expanded in the expansion step.

A stretchable conductor includes a substrate with a first major surface and an elongate wire, wherein the substrate is an elastomeric material, the elongate wire is on the first major surface of the substrate, the wire includes a first end and a second end, and further includes at least one arcuate region between the first end and the second end. At least one portion of the arcuate region of the wire in the region has a first surface area portion embedded in the surface of the substrate and a second surface area portion unembedded on the substrate and exposed in an amount sufficient to render at least an area of the substrate in the region electrically conductive. The unembedded second surface portion of the arcuate region may lie above or below a plane of the substrate. Additionally, different methods of preparing said stretchable conductor are disclosed. Composite articles including said stretchable conductor in durable electrical contact with a conductive fabric are also disclosed.
