Zs. Peng et al., THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE CRITICAL-CURRENT DENSITY AND THE LATTICE DEFORMATION IN Y1-XREXBA2CU3O7-DELTA EPITAXIAL-FILMS, Physica. C, Superconductivity, 282, 1997, pp. 2103-2104
The critical current densities Jc of Y1-xRExBa2Cu3O7-delta (RE=Ho, Dy
and Eu) epitaxial thin films with x=0,0.2,0.4,0.7,1.0 at various tempe
ratures and magnetic fields have been measured magnetically. XRD resul
ts showed that the more serious the lattice deformation, the higher th
e Jc of the films becomes, have been observed by the width of the X-ra
y reflections. These results demonstrated the stress field pinning ind
uced by the lattice deformation in RE-doped Y1-xRExBa2Cu3O7-delta epit
axial thin films.
