Magnetization, Flux Creep and Transport in Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu-O Thin Films

  • Chapter
Science and Technology of Thin Film Superconductors

Abstract

The enormous experimental and theoretical effort on high-temperature copper-oxide-based superconductors began with the La-Ba-Cu-O system [1], shifted to the Y-Ba-Cu-O system [2], and recently has focused on the Bi-Ca-Sr-Cu-O [3] and Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu-O [4] systems. Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu-O ceramics have zero resistance and Meissner effect up to 125 K [5,6], and exhibit at least five structurally distinct superconducting phases.[7–10] Two common phases, Tl2Ca2Ba2Cu3Ox (Tl-2223 with a c-axis of 35.9 Å) and Tl2CaBa2Cu2Oy (T1-2122, c = 29.3 Å), contain double T1-O planes sandwiched by Ba-O sheets and blocks of double (T1-2122) or triple (T1-2223) Cu-O planes separated by intermediate Ca layers.
