We report a simple and easily controllable method where a nano-undulated surface morphology of Nd1/3Eu1/3Gd1/3Ba2Cu3Ox (NEG) films leads to a substantial increase in the critical current density in superconducting YBa2Cu3Ox (YBCO) films…

Samples of superconducting composite (100-x)YBa2Cu3O7-{\delta} + xNi (x = 1, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 and 15 wt.%) were synthesized. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images revealed that the grain size of YBCO reduces gradually as Ni content is…

YBaCuO nanowires were reproducibly fabricated down to widths of 50 nm. A Au/Ti cap layer on YBCO yielded high electrical performance up to temperatures above 80 K in single nanowires. Critical current density of tens of MA/cm2 at T = 4.2 K…

Light-matter strong coupling in the vacuum limit has been shown to enhance material properties over the past decade. Oxide nanoparticles are known to exhibit weak ferromagnetism due to vacancies in the lattice. Here we report the 700-fold…

We have previously shown for powders that Mo substitution into the CuO chains of YBa2Cu3O7 can create effective pinning centres which significantly increase the critical current density (j_c) in 7 T field by a factor of 4 and 10 at 50 and…

Materials of the Y-Ba-Cu-O (melt-textured YBa2Cu3O7-d-based materials or MT-YBCO) and Mg-B-O (MgB2-based materials) systems with high superconducting performance, which can be attained due to the formation of regularly distributed…

An improved nanopatterning procedure has been developed to obtain YBCO nanowires with cross sections as small as 50x50 nm^2, protected by an Au capping layer. To probe the effective role of the Au protecting layer, we have measured the…

There are numerous potential applications for superconducting tapes, based on YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) films coated onto metallic substrates. A long established goal of more than 15 years has been to understand the magnetic flux pinning…

Much smoother surfaces and significantly improved superconducting properties of relatively thick YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) films have been achieved by introducing a multilayered structure with alternating main YBCO and additional NdBCO layers. The…

Doping is one of the most relevant paths to tune the functionality of cuprates, it determines carrier density and the overall physical properties of these impressive superconducting materials. We present an oxygen doping study of…

Proximity-effect and resistance magneto-fluctuations measurements in submicron Nd1.2Ba1.8Cu3Oz (NBCO) nano-loops are reported to investigate coherent charge transport in the non-superconducting state. We find an unexpected inhibition of…

Magneto-optical imaging and magnetization measurements were applied to investigate local formation of superconducting phase effected by a random neck synthesis in Y-Ba-Cu-O system. Polished pellets of strongly inhomogeneous ceramic samples…

We have investigated the superconducting properties of nanocomposite pellets made from Bi-2223 and Co2C powders. There is loss of superconducting fraction in the nanocomposites, but the retained superconducting fraction exhibits robust bulk…

The competition of superconductivity and magnetism in superlattices composed of alternating YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-d}$ and La$_{0.67}$Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ thin films is investigated using low-energy optical spectroscopy. The thickness of the…

Signatures of strong coupling effects in cuprate high-$T_{c}$ superconductors have been authenticated through a variety of spectroscopic probes. However, the microscopic nature of relevant excitations has not been agreed upon. Here we…

We report measurements of the critical temperature of YBCO-Co doped YBCO Superconductor-Normal bilayer films. Depending on the morphology of the S-N interface, the coupling between S and N layers can be turned on to depress the critical…

Nano-scaled substrate surface roughness is shown to strongly influence the critical current density Jc in YBCO films made by pulse-laser-deposition on the crystalline LaAlO3 substrates consisting of two separate twin-free and twin-rich…

Superconducting and normal state properties of sputtered Niobium nanofilms have been systematically investigated, as a function of film thickness in a d=9-90 nm range, on different substrates. The width of the superconducting-to-normal…

We have grown and characterized 30 nm thick YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) films, deposited by pulsed laser deposition on both MgO (110) and SrTiO$_3$ (001) substrates, which induce opposite strain to the superconducting layer. By…

We report on the depression of the superconducting critical temperature of ultra thin YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) layers, when their thickness is reduced in presence of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) magnetic layers in [LCMO (15 u.c.)/ YBCO(N u.c.)]…
