An intense magnetic field is to be produced by a superconducting coil. Which one of the following is essential?
A. The critical temperature TC must be high so that heating of the oil doesn't raise the temperature above TC
B. The magnetic field produced by the current should be less than the critical field
C. The material should be pure so that its high conductivity allows more current to flow through the coil
D. Type-I materials should be used so that superconductivity exists below a sharply defined critical field
