The temperature dependence of the electrical resistance noise in the presence of a magnetic field in polycrystalline YBCO samples was fitted with an average activation energy which decreases with magnetic field and with bias electrical current.

Using a recently developed percolative model, we have simulated the contribution of the thermal noise to the total electrical resistance fluctuation in YBCO granular superconductors under a dc magnetic field. The theoretical model is in good agreement with the experimental results.

The ESR linewidth (∆H pp ) of DPPH coated on the surface of powder specimens of Y 1 Ba 2 Cu 3 O y has been studied under various magnetic field and temperature conditions. ∆H pp increases substantially with decreasing temperature in the field cooled case, whereas almost no linewidth broadening was found in the zero field cooled case. ∆H pp was found to be sensitive to the applied magnetic field. This effect was very pronounced at temperatures lower than 40 K, but decreased strongly with increasing temperature. The broadening of the resonance lineshape has been attributed to spatial and temporal variations of the fluxon distribution in the powder particles.

As is shown, thermally assisted vortex motion can come into being in high-T c superconductors due to the applied temperature gradient. Its behavior strongly depends on the local and global microstructure of the samples, moreover on the temperature and magnetic field. Investigation of the density, size and intensity of the pinning centers of specimens leads to the conclusion that the higher homogeneity immediately weakens and the lower one strenghtens the pinning, thus the former promotes and the latter impedes the vortex motion. The non-equilibrium experimental technique together with a.c. susceptibility measurements render possible the direct determination of the velocity of vortices. Depending on the actual microstructural state of samples it has the values between 6 × 10-2 mm/s and 18 × 10-2 mm/s in the case of Y-Ba-Cu-O specimens investigated.

ABSTRACTAs Bednorz and Muller noted in their original publication reporting on the discovery of high temperature superconductivity, their oxides present many of the features of granular superconductors. This behavior was first primarily ascribed to poor connectivity of the grains in the bulk ceramic samples. but later studies have pointed out to more fundamental reasons for these similarities. We will discuss them after first reviewing the well established properties of low Tc granular superconductors.
