determine the direction in which the supercurrent should
flow. Even if supercurrent anisotropy of superconductive
materials is an inherent property of some materials, the
applied prior art does not teach or suggest the relevance
of this property or the claimed manner of using this
inherent property to increase the maximum density of
supercurrent flowing through said superconducting
material. Only appellants’ disclosure describes how to
orient the Cu-O crystallographic planes and the direction
in which supercurrent will flow in the material.
