Modeling the Critical Current of Polycrystalline Superconducting Films in High Magnetic Fields

We have performed simulations using time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory on a two-dimensional (2-D) polycrystalline system, where grain boundaries are modeled as narrow regions with a locally reduced critical temperature (T c ). For the small system sizes investigated, we find that the critical cur...
