Abstract
MgB2 wires and tapes have been well developed during the past 15 years. They can be used in liquid hydrogen and low magnetic field, which have broad applicability in the future due to their cheap raw material. In this paper we review the traditional processing of MgB2 wires and tapes. The method of internal magnesium diffusion is introduced in which a pure magnesium rod is placed at the center of copper sheath and niobium or tantalum barrier layer, and the space between magnesium rod and barrier layer is filled with boron powder. We can get the high density MgB2 layer after heat treatment. Finally, we discuss the key point of fabricating MgB2 tapes and wires in the future.
