Superconducting colloids produced by exfoliation of Bi‐based compounds with high superconducting transition temperatures (high‐ T c s) can be used as precursors to synthesize superconducting films and nanowires by a simple electrophoretic‐deposition technique. Organic‐salt intercalates of Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+ y , exfoliated by ultrasonication in acetone, can easily be used to coat silver microfibers (see Figure). These results may be significant for high‐ T c superconducting film/wire fabrication.
