Description

The structure of Nb thin films was investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Critical magnetic fields, critical currents of the films and angular dependencies of these parameters were measured. Both the perpendicular upper critical magnetic field and the volume pinning force proved to be increasing with the increase of the granularity. (orig.)
