Measurements Thermal Conductivity Measurement DC magnetization Measurement AC measurement Pinning Measurement/ Penetration Depth Measurement Transition Temperature Measurement

Measurement Set-up Samples: LG : Ingot A,B,C,D (From CBMM, Brazil) FG : RRR ~ 300 (From Wah Chang) Cylindrical Shape Outer Diameter :6mm Inner Diameter :2 mm Length :120 mm Sample Treatment : Baseline measurement : BCP + Bake (160 C, 12 hr) EP (~ 50 m) EP + Bake (120 C, 48 hr)

Thermal Conductivity Measurement P - Set Heater Power d - Distance between temp. sensors A - Cross-sectional area T – Temp. difference RRR ~ 4 * k at 4.2 K RRR = 148 k = 24 W/mK (at 2 K) RRR = 300 k = 16 W/mK (at 2 K)

DC Magnetization Measurement Samples Zero Field Cooled (ZFC) to 2 K Full Magnetization Measurement (-H to H) Measurement of Magnetization with different surface treatments Magnetization Measurement at different Temperatures from 2 K to 8 K  Samples ZFC before every measurement  Sample Temperature : (Tset  0.2) K

Results Nd = 0.007 Recorded Voltage during ramp up Recorded Voltage during ramp down Nd = 0.007

Magnetization with Various Surface Treatments Magnetization curve is altered with different surface treatments No appreciable change in Hc1, Hc2 “Peak Effect” observed only in FG : EP, FG : EP +Bake sample at T = 2 K This can be attributed to the change in the compressional modulus of FLL

Fitted Parameters at 0 K Sample EP EP + Bake (120 C, 48 hr.)

Calculation of Critical Current Density, Jc Calculated from the width of Magnetization loop Maximum Jc falls exponentially with Temperature Empirical fitting Equation Jc(T) = Jc(0) Exp(-T/T0) T0 = 6.85 K Sample Jc(0) A/m^2 EP EP + Bake A 8.14 x 107 9.3 x 107 B 9.24 x 107 1.0 x 108 C 9.7 x 107 D 1.1 x 108 FG 1.38 x 108 1.37 x 108

Calculation of Pinning Force, Fp Pinning of Vortices at Defects Fp = FL ; vortices stationary FL > Fp ; depinning Lorentz Force = FL = Jc x B Normalized Fp Vs reduced magnetic field, b(=H/Hc2) trace same curve at all the temperatures Pinning Model by W. A. Fietz and W. W. Webb, FG : m =1.87, p = 2 , q = 1; Max. Fp at b = 0.7 LG : m =1 to 1.75 ; Max. Fp at b = 0.6

Absolute value of Fp and Jc at 2 K for various samples RRR (Chemical Analysis) RRR (Thermal Conducti-vity) Jc (A/m^2) Fp (N/m^3) A 97  10 97 3.51 x 107 5.8 x 107 B 150  27 229 5.21 x 107 7.41 x 107 C 114  15 182 4.19 x 107 6.18 x 107 D 145  25 148 7.21 x 107 8.04 x 107 FG >250 300 1.1 x 108 1.03 x 108 * Pinning Force is higher in FG than LG * FLL is more rigid in case of pure material, so higher is the pinning force

Variation of Bulk Properties with RRR

AC Measurement Pinning Measurement Measurement of Transition Temp., Tc AC magnetic Field superimposed parallel to the DC magnetic field Pick – up coil is a part of LC oscillator (Frequency ~ 0.27 MHz), C = 30nF (fixed) Change in the oscillator frequency is recorded as a function of DC field Change in frequency is a measure of change in the penetration depth Pinning Measurement Hysteresis between Hc1 and Hc2 due to pinning Measurement of Transition Temp., Tc Zero Magnetic field Frequency change is due to change penetration depth with temperature

Change of Frequency/ Penetration depth with Temperature and Magnetic Field

Change of frequency with Surface Treatment at T = 2 K

In all the samples, LTB improved the HC3

Change of frequency for various samples at T =2 K, 4 K after 120 C, 48 hr. baking * Hc3 of sample B is highest; Hc3 = 1 T at 4 K * Penetration depth related to RRR * RRR in increasing order A, D, C, B and FG

Al. showed the existence of coherent phase of surface superconductivity between Hc2 and Hc3 Ratio, Hcoh/ Hc3 ~ 0.8 This is confirmed by S. Casalbouni In our case, ratio Hcoh/ Hc3 ~ 0.8 to 0.9

Ratio Hc3/Hc2 and Hcoh/Hc2 at T = 2 K Sample EP EP + Bake Hcoh/Hc3 Hc3/Hc2 A 0.89 2.32 0.87 2.42 B 2.22 < 1.0 > 2.62 C 2.27 0.9 2.85 D 2.31 0.93 2.24 FG > 3.1 Ratio Hcoh/Hc3 and Hc3/Hc2 at T =4 K after EP + Bake Sample Hcoh/Hc3 Hc3/Hc2 A 0.9 2.34 B 0.95 2.5 C 0.87 2.83 D 0.92 1.98 FG 0.93 2.95

Conclusion Due to large sample size, measured bulk properties are average and hence not sensitive to surface treatments Fp  Hc2(T), m = 1.87 for FG; m ~ 1 – 1.75 for LG and Fp  1/grain size Reduction in penetration depth is considerable in all the samples treated with EP compared to BCP Effect of baking is to improve the ratio, Hcoh/Hc2 and hence the ratio, Hc3/Hc2
