Description

Magnetization curves for superconducting Rb3C60 with Tc = 27.5K were obtained under various magnetic fields and temperatures. The temperature dependence of the upper critical field Hc2 was determined. The zero temperature value of this field was calculated to be Hc2(0) = 465 ± 50kOe. The magnitudes of the coherence length and the penetration depth were calculated as ξ(0) = 26.7 ± 3A; λL(0) = 2150 ± 100A at zero temperature. Good agreement between the measured temperature dependences of this parameter and Ginzburg-Landau prediction was found at T ≥ 23K. (orig.)
