ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a superconductor is carried out by first preparing a material composed of Y.sub.1 Ba.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.7. This material is heated/molten in a platinum crucible. A melt thus obtained is drawn out from a high-temperature frame provided above the platinum crucible and heated to a temperature exceeding the melting point of the material. The melt thus drawn out is cooled by natural standing, to be solidified. As the result, an elongated superconductor composed of Y.sub.1 Ba.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.7 can be obtained. This superconductor enters a superconductive state at 90 K.
