High-field magnets have applications in science and medicine: thermonuclear fusion, neutron physics, spectroscopy, MRT, electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Application of the 2-nd generation high-temperature superconductors (HTSC) allows creating fundamentally new devices (magnetic field more than 10 tesla and aperture diameter 100 mm and more).

Since 2013 SuperOx Company has been working on HTSC magnets. The company has developed its own technology for manufacturing magnets which ensures reliable operation of the device even in emergency modes (for example, in case of sudden power failure). In 2022, a magnet with a record field for HTSC magnets of 20 tesla was fabricated and tested [K. Baburin et al., “Design, Manufacturing and Tests of an All-HTS 20 T Magnet,” in IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, vol. 34, no. 5, pp. 1-4, Aug. 2024, Art no. 4605604, doi: 10.1109/TASC.2024.3391755]. The company has all the competencies to design and manufacture magnetic systems of standard and special designs.
