CRITICAL AND SUPERCRITICAL CURRENT MEASUREMENTS BY A MAGNETIC INDUCTION METHOD.

Type of article: Article

Summary

THE TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF THE CRITICAL CURRENT AND CURRENT-VOLTAGE CHARACTERISTICS AT SUPERCRITICAL CURRENTS HAVE BEEN MEASURED IN THE LOW FIELD LIMIT ON TOROIDAL SAMPLES OF THE CERAMIC HIGH CRITICAL TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR YBACUO(7-) BY A CONTACTLESS MAGNETIC INDUCTION TECHNIQUE THAT IS SENSITIVE TO THE TRANSPORT SUPERCURRENT BUT NOT TO ANY INTRAGRAIN CURRENT LOOPS. THE SAMPLE CONSTITUTES A TERTIARY WINDING ON A SMALL FERRITE TRANSFORMER CORE. THE SECONDARY VOLTAGE PROVIDES A VERY SENSITIVE INDICATION OF WHEN THE CRITICAL CURRENT IS EXCEEDED, AND WHEN IT IS INTEGRATED IT YIELDS THE SUPERCRITICAL CURRENT-VOLTAGE CHARACTERISTIC.
