Investigation of the anisotropy of dissipation processes in single crystal of Yba2Cu3O7-d system

By means of contactless mechanical method of the measurement of energy losses in superconductors, the anisotropy of dissipation processes has been studied in single crystal high-temperature layered superconductors of Yba2Cu3O7-d system, being in mixed state. The observed anisotropy of energy losses indicates the possibility of the existence of the symmetry of order parameter of dx2-y2 type in these single crystals.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

The investigation of EPR paramagnetic probe line width and shape temperature dependence in high-temperature superconductors of Bi–Pb–Sr–Ca–Cu–O system

The work is related with the finding out of magnetic phases in strongly anisotropic high-temperature superconductor Bi1,7Pb0,3Sr2Ca2Cu3O10-δ in the temperature region where the superconductor is in the normal state. It was studied the temperature dependence of the paramagnetic probe EPR line width. In the normal state at T\u3eTc near 175 K it was revealed a pick in the temperature dependence of line width. In this region it was observed the time increase of the line width with the characteristic time ~ 17 min. This shows the possibility of magnetic phase formation in this material

Effect of Secondary Echo Signals in Spin-Systems with a Large Inhomogeneous Broadening of NMR Line

The possibility of comparatively simple and fast determination of characteristic relaxation parameters T1, T2 and T3 for nuclear spin-systems with strong Larmor and Rabi inhomogeneous broadenings of NMR lines using the secondary echo signal effect was experimentally shown. Resides, this method gives opportunity to obtain a valuable infomation on the inhomogeneous NMR broadening which reflects the character of magnetic field microscopic destribution in such systems, as example, multidomain magnetics and superconductors.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figure

On the Nature of Superconducting Precursors in Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O Compositions Fabricated by Hot Shock Wave Consolidation Technology

In this paper, the possibility of critical temperature increasing of superconducting precursor Tс and the current bearing capacity in samples of Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconducting system fabricated using hot shock wave consolidation (HSWC) technology and investigated by the vibrating torsional magnetometry method, was studied. The advantage of HSWC technology over the traditional technologies of superconducting composites synthesis is that the high-density materials are made from the Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconducting system. After the action of explosive wave the superconductivity is retained. After the explosion a pronounced texture is formed indicating the creation of efficient pinning centers and thus, the increase of current-carrying ability of the obtained material. The critical temperature of potential superconducting precursor Tc of transition to superconducting state increased from Tc=107K for starting sample to Tc=138K, using the HSWC technology for synthesis of samples in range of pressures from P=5GPa up to P=12GPa

Temperature dependence investigation of dissipation processes in strongly anisotropic high-temperature superconductors of Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system synthesized using solar energy

The investigation of temperature dependence of damping and period of vibrations of HTSC superconductive cylinder of Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system suspended by a thin elastic thread and performing axial-torsional vibrations in a magnetic field at temperatures above the critical one for the main phase Tc=107 K were carried out. It was observed some "chaos" temperature region in the temperature interval 107-138 K, where it is seen separate ripples of dissipation and oscillation frequency. It is assumed that the "chaos" region could point to a possibility of existence of other magnetic and more high-temperature phases as single islands in a normal materials matrix.Comment: 10 pages, 0 figure

Relation between increased transmision in XAS and increase in Abrikosov Vortices as T→Tc

The increased transmission, observed in the EXAFS region of their X-ray absorption spectra, as cuprate materials go through the superconducting transition temperature Tc is correlated with a critical increase in Abrikosov Vortex expulsion in zero magnetic field as the temperature T →Tc
