Method of forming superconducting magnets using stacked LTS/HTS coated conductor

A method of forming magnets using stacked superconducting films-disks of coated conductor is described. The superconducting material may be either from the oxide high temperature superconducting (HTS) class or the metallic/inter-metallic low temperature superconducting (LTS) class. An LTS metallic or inter-metallic compound can include Nb, Va, Ti, Hg, Pb, NbTi, Nb₃Sn, Nb₃Al, etc. or the more recently discover MgB₂. An oxide superconductor refers to the RE-Ba₂Cu₃O_x compound, wherein RE=Y, Nd, La, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu; the Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_x, the (Bi, Pb)₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_x, Bi₂Sr₂Ca₂Cu₃O_x or (Bi, Pb)₂Sr₂Ca₂Cu₃O_x compound; the Tl₂Ca_1.5BaCu₂O_x or Tl₂Ca₂Ba₂Cu₃O_x compound; or a compound involving substitution such as the Nd_1+xBa_2-;xCu₃O_x compounds.
