ABSTRACT:
A high-speed superconducting switch and method. A body of superconductive material has a primary conductive plane through which primary current flows in an electrical circuit. Control current is conducted through the body of superconductive material in a direction which is angular with respect to the primary conductive plane. When control current flows through the body of superconductive material the primary current does not flow through the body, and when the flow of control current ceases, flow of the primary current resumes.
