Abstract

Superconducting persistent critical currents jc>105A/cm2 at temperatures T∼50K and magnetic fields B∼6T are reported for the YBa2Cu2.98Mo0.02O7+d compound. Evidence for the increased pinning force Fp was found from a peak effect present for jc(B). Examination of Fp by Kramer’s scaling procedure shows that the effective pinning centers act as weakly interacting extended and randomly distributed point-like defects, most likely pairs of MoO6 octahedra in the CuO chains.
