Abstract

The critical current densityJc of Y1−xHo x Ba2Cu3O7−δ (YHBCO) epitaxial thin films withx=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.7 at various temperatures and magnetic fields has been measured magnetically. TheJc and flux pinning density Fp values are significantly enhanced with the Ho substitute amountx with the optimal effect achieved at Ho concentration around x=0.4 in the entire measured temperature (30–77 K) and magnetic field (0–3 T) ranges. X-ray diffraction patterns have shown that the greater the lattice deformation, the higher theJc of the films.
