Abstract

We have fabricated (Sr,K)Fe_2As2 superconducting wire through a powder-in-tube method that is combined with a hot isostatic pressing technique. The transport J _c in the wire at 4.2 K has reached 1.0 × 10⁵ A cm^-2 under self-field, and 9.4 × 10 ³ A cm^-2 at 100 kOe. This is the first report that the transport J_c reaches 1 × 10⁵ A cm^-2 in a (Sr,K)Fe_2As2 round wire. Magneto-optical imaging of the wire has confirmed the large intergranular critical current density in the wire core. The microstructure and compositional analyses imply that there is room for improvement of the J_c value through the optimization of the wire fabrication process.
