50 Ë 2 Superconducting materials
HTS PM can be widely used in construction of practically frictionless bearings,
non-contact spinners, Maglev flywheel energy storage devices, Maglev trains, mo-
tors, wind or tidal power generators, NMR/MRI, magnetic drag delivery, magnetic
separation, magnetron sputtering, and contact-less liquid pumps, etc.
