Summary

ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION CAN PENETRATE INTO SOLID SAMPLES OF YTTRIUM-BARIUM CUPRATE SUPERCONDUCTORS AT MAGNETIC FLUX DENSITIES OF LESS THAN 1 MILLITESLA. THIS BEHAVIOUR MAY LEAD TO POTENTIALLY USEFUL INDUCTIVE EFFECTS, BUT THE PENETRATION OF FLUX IS AN OBVIOUS DISADVANTAGE FOR MAGNETIC SHIELDING APPLICATIONS. THE AUTHORS DESCRIBE A TECHNIQUE FOR THE QUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENT OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THESE MATERIALS AS MAGNETIC SHIELDS. THE TECHNIQUE PROVIDES A QUICK, RELIABLE, NON-CONTACT MEANS OF ESTABLISHING THE < QUALITY > OF A SAMPLE WHICH CORRELATES WELL WITH OTHER PROPERTIES SUCH AS THE MEISSNER FRACTION, CRITICAL CURRENT DENSITY AND LONG-TERM STABILITY.
