Strong vortex pinning in Co-doped BaFe2As2 single crystal thin films

C. Tarantini, S. Lee, Y. Zhang +13

We report measurements of the field and angular dependences of Jc of truly epitaxial Co-doped BaFe2As2 thin films grown on SrTiO3/(La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3 with different SrTiO3 template th…

New Fe-based superconductors: properties relevant for applications

M Putti, I Pallecchi, E Bellingeri +23

Less than two years after the discovery of high temperature superconductivity in oxypnictide LaFeAs(O,F) several families of superconductors based on Fe layers (1111, 122, 11, 111)…

Upper critical fields and thermally-activated transport of Nd(O_0.7F_0.3)FeAs single crystal

J. Jaroszynski, F. Hunte, L. Balicas +9

We present measurements of the resistivity and the upper critical field H_c2 of Nd(O_0.7F_0.3)FeAs single crystals in strong DC and pulsed magnetic fields up to 45 T and 60 T, resp…

Small anisotropy, weak thermal fluctuations, and high field superconductivity in Co-doped iron pnictide Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2

A. Yamamoto, J. Jaroszynski, C. Tarantini +10

We performed high-field magnetotransport and magnetization measurements on a single crystal of the 122-phase iron pnictide Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2. Unlike the HTS cuprates and 1111-phase…

Combined microstructural and magneto optical study of current flow in polycrystalline forms of Nd and Sm Fe-oxypnictides

F. Kametani, A. A. Polyanskii, A. Yamamoto +9

In order to understand why the inter- and intra-granular current densities of polycrystalline superconducting oxypnictides differ by three orders of magnitude, we have conducted co…

Evidence for two distinct scales of current flow in polycrystalline Sm and Nd iron oxypnictides

A. Yamamoto, A. A. Polyanskii, J. Jiang +13

Early studies have found quasi-reversible magnetization curves in polycrystalline bulk rare-earth iron oxypnictides that suggest either wide-spread obstacles to intergranular curre…
