On the Ginzburg-Landau Analysis of the Upper Critical Field Hc2 in MgB2
Temperature dependence of the upper critical field Hc2 (T) for the
superconducting magnesium diboride, MgB2, is studied in the vicinity of Tc by
using a two-band Ginzburg-Landau (G-L) theory. The temperature dependence of
Hc2 (T) near Tc exhibits a positive curvature. In addition, the calculated
temperature dependence and its higher order derivatives are also shown to be in
a good agreement with the experimental data. In analogy with the multi-band
character of Eliashberg microscopic theory, the positive curvature of Hc2 (T)
is described reasonably by solving the two-band of G-L theory.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figures, submitted to SUST November 200
