AbstractThe upper critical field of a cuprate high-temperature superconductor, La1.84Sr0.16CuO4, was investigated by high-frequency self-resonant contactless electrical conductivity measurements in magnetic fields up to 102 T. An irreversible transition was observed at 85 T (T = 4.2 K), defined as the upper critical field. The temperature-dependent upper critical field was argued on the basis of the Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg theory. The Pauli-limiting pair-breaking process with a small contribution of the spin-orbit coupling explained the first-order phase transition exhibiting a hysteresis observed at low temperatures.

AbstractUpper critical field and its anisotropy have been measured on two very short wavelength Mo-Ni heterostructures of different degrees of perfection, λ = 13.8Å (disordered structure) and X = 16.6Å (layered structure). In both cases the parallel critical field has an unexpected temperature dependence, a large and temperature dependent anisotropy, and over 60% enhancement over the Clogston-Chandrasekhar limit. Data are fit to the Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg theory and the spin-orbit scattering times are found to be 1.79 × 10−13 sec and 2 × 10−13 sec, respectively.

AbstractWe have fabricated carbon-containing nanowires by a gallium focused ion beam-induced deposition process from the precursor phenanthrene, C14H10. The electrical conductivity of the nanowires is only weakly temperature dependent below 300K, and reveals a superconducting state below Tc ˜ 7 K. We have measured the temperature dependence of the resistive upper critical field Hc2(T), and from those data, estimate the zero temperature critical field and coherence length to be 8.8 T and 6.1 nm, respectively. The Tc of this material is approximately 40% higher than that in any other FIB/direct write nanowire, such as those based on W(Ga), and thus offers the possibility of fabricating superconducting direct-write nanostructures that function at liquid helium temperature.
