Description

Measurements of the transport critical current density (J/sub c//sub t/ ) of textured sintered samples of DyBa2 Cu3 O7 have been made as a function of temperature in magnetic fields up to 27 T. Data with the current orthogonal to the applied field for the high B/sub c/2 (T) (Bperpendicularc axis) and the low B/sub c/2 (T) (Bparallelc axis) orientations are presented. We report the anomalous suppression of the transport critical current when current flows along the c axis at 24 T and 4.2 K, a field which is well below B/sub c/2 (∼100 T)= at this temperature
