Strong improvement of the transport characteristics of YBaCuO grain boundaries using ionic liquid gating
A. Fête, C. Senatore
For more than 30 years, the remarkable superconducting properties of REBaCuO (RE = rare earth) compounds have triggered research studies ac…
Ionic liquid gating of ultra-thinYBaCuO films
A. Fête, L. Rossi, A. Augieri +1
In this paper, we present a detailed investigation of the self-field transport properties of an ionic liquid gated ultra-thin YBaCuO film. From the high temperature…
An equation for the quench propagation velocity valid for high field magnet use of REBCO coated conductors
Marco Bonura, Carmine Senatore
Based on a study of the thermophysical properties, we derived a practical formula for the normal zone propagation velocity appropriate for REBaCuO coated conductors…
Field and temperature scaling of the critical current density in commercial REBCO coated conductors
Carmine Senatore, Christian Barth, Marco Bonura +2
Scaling relations describing the electromagnetic behaviour of coated conductors (CCs) greatly simplify the design of REBCO-based devices. The performance of REBCO CCs is strongly i…
Thermal conductivity and stability of commercial MgB conductors
Marco Bonura, Carmine Senatore
This paper presents a study of the thermal transport properties of MgB tapes differing in architecture, stabilization and constituent materials. The temperature and field depen…
Electro-mechanical properties of REBCO coated conductors from various industrial manufacturers at 77 K, self-field and 4.2 K, 19 T
Christian Barth, Giorgio Mondonico, Carmine Senatore
Rare-earth-barium-copper-oxide (REBCO) tapes are now available from several industrial manufacturers and are very promising conductors in high field applications. Due to diverging…
High-field thermal transport properties of REBCO coated conductors
Marco Bonura, Carmine Senatore
The use of REBCO coated conductors is envisaged for many applications, extending from power cables to high-field magnets. Whatever the case, thermal properties of REBCO tapes play…
Formation and upper critical fields of the two distinct A15 phases in the subelements of Powder-In-Tube Nb3Sn wires
Carmine Senatore, Rene Flukiger
It is well known that the A15 layer in the subelements of a Powder-In-Tube (PIT) Nb3Sn wire exhibits two different grain morphologies: a region with fine grains (~200 nm in size) r…
Temperature and time scaling of the peak-effect vortex configuration in FeTeSe
Marco Bonura, Enrico Giannini, Romain Viennois +1
An extensive study of the magnetic properties of FeTeSe crystals in the superconducting state is presented. We show that weak collective pinning, originating from s…
Vortex phase diagram and temperature-dependent second-peak effect in overdoped BiSrCuO crystals
Alexandre Piriou, Enrico Giannini, Yanina Fasano +2
We study the vortex phase diagram of the single-layer Bi2Sr2CuO6+d (Bi2201) superconductor by means of bulk magnetization measurements on high-quality oxygen-overdoped crystals. In…
Real-space vortex glass imaging and the vortex phase diagram of SnMo6S8
A. P. Petrovic, Y. Fasano, R. Lortz +8
Using scanning tunnelling microscopy at 400mK, we have obtained maps of around 100 vortices in SnMo6S8 from 2 - 9T. The orientational and positional disorder at 5 and 9T show that…
