Abstract
Measurements of the field-modulated critical currents of cuprate thin film microbridges on tricrystal substrates are reported. Two central peaks of equal height are observed in the field-dependent critical currents of YBCO tricrystal microbridges. However, the critical current is nonvanishing at zero field for YBCO, consistent with an orthorhombically distorted d-wave order parameter. An ion-irradiated YBCO tricrystal microbridge has also been measured, and has been found to exhibit more ideal dx2−y2-like behavior with increasing irradiation dosage.
