Journal ArticleDOI
Colossal magnetoresistance of ferromagnetic manganites: Structural tuning and mechanisms.
Josep Fontcuberta,Benjamín Martínez,A. Seffar,S. Piñol,José Luis García-Muñoz,Xavier Obradors +5 more
TL;DR: The amplitude $\ensuremath{\rho}(T,H)$ and temperature ${T}_{M}$ and CMR are found to be controlled by the radius of the lanthanide $({L}^{3+})$ which modifies the bending of the Mn-O-Mn bond.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microstructure of directionally solidified high-critical-current YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 - Y 2 BaCuO 5 composites
Felip Sandiumenge,Felip Sandiumenge,S. Piñol,Xavier Obradors,Etienne Snoeck,Christian Roucau +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that samples with a high YBa-BaO-O concentration display polygonization as a mechanism to relieve stress while only small microcracks occur which are very efficiently stopped by small ${\mathrm{Y}}_{2}$${BaCuO}}_{5}$ precipitates.
Journal ArticleDOI
ac response of the vortex system in a Pr1.85Ce0.15CuO4-y single crystal.
TL;DR: It is shown that a thermally activated flux motion over effective energy barriers can account for the dc-field and frequency effects and it is argued that it is a signature of the critical state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Giant resistive peak close to the superconducting transition in L2-xCexCuO4 single crystals.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the resistance peak is a manifestation of a quasireentrant behavior resulting from an intrinsic granularity of these n-type high-temperature superconductors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bridgman growth and enhanced critical currents in textured YBa2Cu3O7 — Y2BaCuO5 composites
TL;DR: In this article, a vertical Bridgman method was used for the growth of monolithic YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 superconductors with a very homogeneous distribution of micronic or submicronic precipitates.
