Greetings from the chairs

Welcome to the virtual CCA2021

35 years have already passed since the discovery of cuprate superconductors. As an application form, a long-length fabrication technology for epitaxial thin films called coated conductors has been developed, and we are now at the forefront of application development of this technology. Coated conductors have performance that far surpasses conventional superconducting materials, and their applications range from particle physics, fusion, medical science, aircraft, electric power equipment, and more. In addition, materials science related to coated conductors is steadily advancing and is now playing an important role in driving superconducting technology.

The role of the virtual CCA2021 is to link the latest results of coated conductor materials science to various applications and promote their industrialization. The virtual CCA2021 will be held online for a week in distributed sessions. In each session on various application fields, the latest results will be announced, followed by a panel discussion with the audience and exchange of opinions to promote industrial applications.

We look forward to the participation of many people who are interested in this field.
We hope to see you at the virtual CCA2021.
