Abstract
The complex differential susceptibility of a YBCO film and YBCO–STO–LCMO structures with different thicknesses of the STO layer (0, 2, and 7 nm) is investigated. It is shown that for a YBCO–LCMO structure the temperature of the superconducting transition Tonset and the critical current density jc are observed to decrease in comparison with a pure YBCO film. In a YBCO–STO–LCMO structure, on the contrary, Tonset increases, while jc increases for the structure with the 2 nm thickness of STO and decreases for that with 7 nm of STO. It is conjectured that there is a change of the vortex pinning mechanism as the temperature is lowered.
