Abstract

In a high-temperature superconducting conductor 10, a laminated body 15 is formed by laminating a high-temperature superconducting layer 14 on one side surface of a flexible and tape-shaped metal substrate 12 via an intermediate layer 13, and a plurality of thin film wires 11 are formed by providing a stabilization layer 17 around the laminated body 15 via a protective layer 16 and are arranged in a thickness direction. The plurality of thin film wires 11 are connected at both ends in a width direction to each other in a conductible state in a longitudinal direction by means of conductive coupling member 20, in such a manner that a thin film wire 11 disposed at an outermost side is positioned with a surface 18 on a side of the metal substrate 12 directed outward and a surface 19 of each of the plurality of thin film wires 11 facing the high-temperature superconducting layer 14 is held in a non-fixed state with respect to an opposing surface.
