Magnetization suppression of Type-II Superconductors by external alternating magnetic field

Superconductivity 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The effect of suppression of static magnetization of an anisotropic hard superconductor by alternating magnetic field is analyzed theoretically. The magnetic moment suppression dynamics is described with respect to the magnetization loop of the superconductor. It is found that in some cases the magnetic moment varies nonmonotonically with the growth in amplitude h\mathrm{h} of the alternating field. Effect of transition, induced by h(t)\mathrm{\mathbf{h}}(t), of superconductor form paramagnetic into the diamagnetic state is considered. The amplitude of alternating magnetic field hc(δ,ϑ)\mathrm{h}_{c}(\delta,\vartheta) for which the complete suppression of the magnetization occurs is calculated as the function of anisotropy parameter δ\delta and it orientation angle ϑ\vartheta with respect to the crystallographic axes of the sample.
