Magnetic Measurements on YBa(2)Cu(3)O(x) Ceramic High Temperature Superconductors
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
Static magnetic susceptibilities have been measured, following the Faraday method, on a disc of home-made YBa(2)Cu(3)O(x). The superconducting ceramic disc was oriented perpendicular to the applied magnetic induction field < 10 mT. On cooling the sample in a constant field from above to below the critical temperature a Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect is observed. The interpretation of the data yields partial flux expulsion. That the flux is not completely expelled from the sample is understood on the basis of the flatness of the disc. Part of the flux which had not been expelled by the Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect remains trapped in the cooled superconducting material.
