Ss. Yan et al., A METHOD TO DETERMINE THE DISTRIBUTION OF PINNING ENERGIES - 90-DEGREES ROTATING SAMPLE MAGNETIC MEASUREMENT, Physica. B, Condensed matter, 194, 1994, pp. 1525-1526
90-degrees rotating sample magnetic measurement, a method to determine
the distribution of flux pinning energies in high temperature superco
nductors is described. As an example, the results for superconducting
Bi2-xPbxSr2Ca2Cu3Oy with x=0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 at 77K are given. There ar
e mainly three kinds of pinning with pinning energies of 0.01eV, 0.08
approximately 0.09eV and 0.3eV, respectively.
