As of 2023 the most important ones economicaly were:The main application is Magnetic resonance imaging. Both of these are have to be Liquid helium, i.e. they are not "high-temperature superconductor" which is a pain. One big strength they have is that they are metallic, and therefore can made into wires, which is crucial to be able to make electromagnetic coils out of them.
- Nb-Ti: the most widely used one. Used e.g. to create the magnetic fields of the Large Hadron Collider Up to 15 T.
- Nb-Sn: more expensive than Nb-Ti, but can reach up to 30 T.
