This paper deals with the mechanisms controlling the critical current density vs. field behavior in YBCO films.

Abstract

This paper deals with the mechanisms controlling the critical current density vs. field behavior in YBCO films. We base our analysis on a suitable model concerning the existence of a network of intergrain Josephson junctions whose length is modulated by defects. Irradiation with 0.25 GeV Au ions provide a useful tool to check the texture of the sample, in particular to give a gauge length reference to separate "weak" links and high- Jc links.
