Zusammenfassung: | Bridgelike constrictions were fabricated from polycrystalline bulk Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BSCCO), and their resistive transition was investigated as a function of temperature. DC current, magnetic field, and optical irradiation. The data are well described by a network of highly damped Josephson junctions. Evidence for optically induced depinning of vortices is presented. A threshold value was found for the product of current density and flux density, above which the resistivity increased linearly with applied magnetic field. This behavior is attributed to flux flow, and for conventional superconductors it is described by the Bardeen-Stephen relationship. It is shown that many electrical characteristics predicted by this model resemble flux creep. |
