Onset of decoupling at the melting field of the vortex lattice in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 from microwave dissipation

H. Enriquez, Y. De Wilde, N. Bontemps +1

We have measured the microwave dissipation at 10 GHz in a Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 single crystal, between 75 and 50 K, as a function of the static magnetic field applied parallel to the c ax…
