Physical properties of high-temperature superconductors

A much–needed update on complex high–temperature superconductors, focusing on materials aspects; this timely book coincides with a recent major break–through of the discovery of iron–based superconductors. 

It provides an overview of materials aspects of high–temperature superconductors, combining introductory aspects, description of new physics, material aspects, and a description of the material properties   This title is suitable for researchers in materials science, physics and engineering. Also for technicians interested in the applications of superconductors, e.g. as biomagnets
