Observation of a propagating normal/superconducting interface via I-V analysis in YBa2Cu3O/sub x/
- 1. Department of Physics, Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida 32306 (USA)
Description
Current-voltage (I-V) measurements for the high-temperature superconducting phase of polycrystalline YBa2Cu3O/sub x/ show loop behavior for temperatures below T/sub c/. A thermal model has been constructed which shows that the loop is caused by a normal/superconducting interface, created by the heat at the solder junction, propagating down the sample. The importance of this effect to device applications and to critical current measurements is briefly discussed
