Description

Hysteresis loops measurements have been performed for various GdBa2Cu3O7 high temperature superconducting samples hydrogenated at 200-500 K. Magnetic measurement at low temperatures (close to 4 K) revealed initial gradual increase in the pinning force and critical current density at low annealing temperatures. These measurements also revealed non-monotonic changes in the pinning force close to the transition temperature. Very little reduction in the transition temperature has been observed in samples hydrogenated below 300 C. (copyright 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH and Co. KGaA, Weinheim) (orig.)
