1 Thermal conductivity of superconducting MgB
نویسنده
چکیده
The thermal conductivity of superconducting MgB 2 was studied in both the superconducting and normal state region. The latter is almost equally determined by the electronic-and the lattice thermal conductivity. In the superconducting state, however, the lattice thermal conductivity is larger. The electronic thermal conductivity below T c was derived from the experimental data considering the Bardeen-Rickayzen-Tewordt theory together with the model of Geilikman. The analysis shows that electron scattering on static imperfection dominates .

Thermal Conductivity of Superconducting Mgb 2
Thermal conductivity of superconducting MgB 2 was studied in both the superconducting and the normal state region. The latter is almost equally determined by the electronic-and the lattice contribution to the total thermal conductivity. In the superconducting state, however, the lattice contribution is larger. The electronic thermal conductivity below T c was derived from the experimental data ...
متن کاملTransport Properties of Mgb 2
1. Introduction The discovery of the superconductivity in MgB 2 [1] at a temperature as high as 39 K has stimulated a enormous interest about the comprehension of its mechanism [2][3]. The study of the electron transport properties may give an insight into the normal state conduction process and into the electronic structure of MgB 2. From this point of view the results are contradictory. In fa...
متن کاملAnisotropy parameters of superconducting
Data on macroscopic superconducting anisotropy of MgB 2 are reviewed. The data are described within a weak coupling two-gaps anisotropic s-wave model of super-conductivity. The calculated ratio of the upper critical fields γ H = H c2,ab /H c2,c increases with decreasing temperature in agreement with available data, whereas the calculated ratio of London penetration depths γ λ = λ c /λ ab decrea...
متن کامل2 00 1 Detailed electronic structure studies on superconducting MgB 2 and related compounds
Our recent electronic structure studies on series of transition metal diborides indicated that the electron phonon coupling constant is much smaller in these materials than in superconducting intermetallics. However experimental studies recently show an exceptionally large superconducting transition temperature of 40 K in MgB 2. In order to understand the unexpected superconducting behavior of ...
متن کامل1 Suppression of Superconducting Critical Current Density by Small Flux Jumps in MgB 2 Thin Films
By doing magnetization measurements during magnetic field sweeps on thin films of the new superconductor MgB2, it is found that in a low temperature and low field region small flux jumps are taking place. This effect strongly suppresses the central magnetization peak leading to reduced nominal superconducting critical current density at low temperatures. A borderline for this effect to occur is...
