P. Kottman et al., TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENCE OF INTERGRANULAR AND INTRAGRANULAR CURRENTS IN(BI,PB)(2)SR2CA2CU3OX SUPERCONDUCTORS, Physica. C, Superconductivity, 282, 1997, pp. 2199-2200
The temperature dependence of inter-and intragranular currents in (Bi,
Pb)(2)Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+x, superconductors in the range of temperatures 10-
100 K was studied. The experiments were magnetic and, in order to dist
inguish the contributions from the two kinds of currents, they were pe
rformed with two samples of similar grains: a bulk sample of strongly
coupled grains and a sample without intergranular coupling (powder sam
ple).
