چکیده

We have studied the field at which superconductivity nucleates in grain-aligned samples of Y1Ba2Cu3O7-δ very close to the transition temperature Tc. For the field parallel to the c axis and for temperatures within 2 K of Tc, the nucleation field is found to vary as (1-T/Tc)1/2. The data suggest that superconductivity localized near twin boundaries may exist at temperatures close to Tc. .AE

Quasiclassical Theory of Twin Boundaries in High-Tc Superconductors

We investigate the electronic structure of twin boundaries in orthorhombically distorted high-Tc materials using the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. At low temperatures we find a local instability to a time-reversal symmetry breaking state at the twin boundary. This state yields spontaneous currents along the twin boundary that are microscopically explained by the structure of the q...

اتصال جوزفسون بین ابررساناهای دمای بالا با ضریب عبور اختیاری

In this paper, a dc Josephson junction between two singlet superconductors (d-wave and s-wave) with arbitrary reflection coefficient has been investigated theoretically. For the case of high Tc superconductors, the c-axes are parallel to an interface with finite transparency and their ab-planes have a mis-orientation. The physics of potential barrier will be demonstrated by a transparency coeff...

Thermal Mechanisms of Stable Macroscopic Penetration of Applied Currents in High Temperature Superconductors and their Instability Conditions

Macroscopic mechanisms of applied current penetration in high-Tc superconductors are discussed to understand the basic physical trends, which are characteristic for the stable and unstable formation of the thermo-electrodynamics states of high-Tc superconductors placed in DC external magnetic field. The performed analysis shows that the definition of the current stability conditions of high-Tc ...

Oxygen Disorder Effects in High Tc Superconductors

It is now well established that oxygen plays a crucial role in the structural, magnetic and transport properties of high Tc materials. We present here a brief review of the effect of the oxygen deficiency and vacancy ordering on the superconducting and magnetic properties of various superconductors.

Effect of Transparency on the Josephson Junction between D-wave Superconductors

In this paper, a dc Josephson junction between two singlet superconductors (d-wave and s-wave) with arbitrary reflection coefficient has been investigated theoretically following the famous paper [ Y. Tanaka and S. Kashiwaya 1996 Phys. Rev. B 53, R11957]. For the case of High Tc superconductors, the c-axes are parallel to an interface with finite transparency and their ab-planes have a mis-orie...
