Low-Temperature Upper-Critical-Field Anomalies in Clean Superconductors.
We interpret the upper-critical-field anomalies observed in some high-temperature superconductors as resulting from the proximity to a zero-temperature quantum critical point. We estimate the shape of the phase boundary between the normal and the superconducting phase by modeling the zerotemperature critical point as the second-order end point of the first-order melting line of the vortex latti...
متن کاملKiloampere, Variable-Temperature, Critical-Current Measurements of High-Field Superconductors
We review variable-temperature, transport critical-current (I c) measurements made on commercial superconductors over a range of critical currents from less than 0.1 A to about 1 kA. We have developed and used a number of systems to make these measurements over the last 15 years. Two exemplary variable-temperature systems with coil sample geometries will be described: a probe that is only varia...
متن کاملUpper critical field in anisotropic superconductors.
Anisotropic superconductivity has been studied in a variety of one-dimensional, ' intercalated, s and artificially prepared" " systems. Much of the experimental work in these systems is related to measurements of the temperature and angular dependence of the upper critical fields H, 2. In many cases, the experiments determine the critical field at which surface superconductivity nucleates, i.e....
متن کاملUpper Critical Field for Cobalt Oxide Superconductors
Motivated by the recent discovery of the cobalt oxide superconductors, we calculate the temperature dependence of the upper critical field on a triangular lattice. Using the lattice version of the Gor’kov equations we investigate how the applied magnetic field affects singlet and triplet types of superconductivity. We show that in a wide range of model parameters not only Zeeman coupling, but a...
متن کاملDirect measurement of the upper critical field in cuprate superconductors
In the quest to increase the critical temperature Tc of cuprate superconductors, it is essential to identify the factors that limit the strength of superconductivity. The upper critical field Hc2 is a fundamental measure of that strength, yet there is no agreement on its magnitude and doping dependence in cuprate superconductors. Here we show that the thermal conductivity can be used to directl...
