We firstly described a simulation model to investigate the influence of grain boundary(GB)on the vortex transport properties in YBCO film.It is found that the size of inhomogeneous area caused by GB as well as the average velocity in transverse and longitudinal directions shows an angular dependence when the angle between the GB and the sample edge varies.We have also studied the impact of magnetic field intensity on dynamic behavior of vortex lattice and found that a lower vortex density makes it difficult for the vortex lattice to transfer from pinning state to flow state.As the magnetic field is decreased beyond a critical value,sharp jumps and strong fluctuations were observed in the I-V curve.Finally,we conducted measurements on a thin film YBa2Cu3O7 with an individual artificial grain boundary to support the simulation process.
We investigated the superconducting properties of Fe_(1+y)Te_(0:6)Se_(0:4) single-crystalline microbridges with a width of 4 m and thicknesses ranging from 20.8 to 136.2 nm. The temperature-dependent in-plane resistance of the bridges exhibited a type of metalinsulator transition in the normal state. The critical current density(J_c) of the microbridge with a thickness of 136.2 nm was82.3 kA/cm^2 at 3K and reached 105 kA/cm^2 after extrapolation to T = 0 K. The current versus voltage characteristics of the microbridges showed a Josephson-like behavior with an obvious hysteresis. These results demonstrate the potential application of ultra-thin Fe-based microbridges in superconducting electronic devices such as bolometric detectors.
