Abstract
This paper shows that the combination of self-assembled structures in the form of “whiskers” and nanoparticles, which appear as a result of the joint sintering powders YBa2Cu3O7−x and arc nanopowders CuO, leads to a significant increase in the current density and the appearance of the peak effect in strong magnetic fields range. Very high critical current density appears from a complex vortex pinning, where the defects in the form of “whiskers” provides more energy of pinning, and nanoparticles inhibit the flux creep. Regulation of the morphology of such structures can be achieved by simple change of the concentration of nanodispersed additives. It is shown that the optimal additive is CuO equal to 20 wt. %.
