Contactless estimation of critical current density in thin superconducting films and its temperature dependence using ac magnetic measurements

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We have measured magnetic response of second-generation high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3Ox wire and Nb thin film in perpendicular ac field as a function of temperature. We compare experimental complex ac susceptibility to the calculated susceptibility based on the model of Bean's critical-state response in two-dimensional (2D) disk in perpendicular field. The harmonic analysis is needed for comparison between the model and the experimental data. We present a method of linking model and experimental susceptibility. Good agreement of experimental susceptibility with model susceptibility of 2D disk allows contactless estimation of critical depinning current density and its temperature dependence.
