Abstract:One of the most promising routes for achieving unprecedentedly high critical currents in superconductors is to incorporate dispersed, non-superconducting nanoparticles to control the dissipative motion of vortices. However, these inclusions reduce the overall superconducting volume and can strain the interlaying superconducting matrix, which can detrimentally reduce T c . Consequently, an optimal balance must be achieved between the nanoparticle density n p and size d. Determining this balance requires garneri… Show more
