Abstract
We report the synthesis procedure and the chemical-physical characteri zation of the YNi2B2C superconductor. From magnetic measurements we sh ow that this material is a type-II superconductor. We evaluate the pen etration depth, the coherence length and, thus, the Ginzburg-Landau pa rameter. Despite the low value of kappa(12), a very large region of re versibility in the H-T plane is observed.
