H. Okamoto et al., Pinning characteristics of Bi-2223 and Bi-2212 wires with consideration ofJ(c) distribution, SUPERCOND S, 12(12), 1999, pp. 1102-1105
Temperature and magnetic field dependences of pinning parameters connected
with J(c) distribution are obtained from measurements on electric field-cur
rent density characteristics. A scaling law of the pinning force is confirm
ed. The temperature dependences of the normalization field which is the gla
ss-liquid transition field and that of the maximum pinning force are discus
sed. The results suggest the existence of two phase structure in Bi-2223 an
d Bi-2212 samples.
