Abstract
We study the temperature dependence of the in-plane magneto-resistance ρab(T) in the untwined YBa2Cu3O7−δ single crystals after irradiation by fast electrons (energy 0.5–2.5 MeV, dose 1018 cm−2), also with a small oxygen hypostoichiometry at different angles between the external magnetic field 15 kOe and the ab-planes α. We found that at high temperatures in the pseudogap region external magnetic field does not affect the ρab(T), but it broadens transitional region Tc – Tc0 from 0.3 K at zero field and α = 0 to approximately 6 K at α = 90° in the field. In the case of an unirradiated sample, ρab(T) display a 3D to 2D dimensional crossover when temperature decreases from Tc to Tc0 and scaling near the Tc0 which we relate to the flux-flow and vortex-lattice melting. The reasons for the appearance of low-temperature “tails” (paracoherent transitions) on resistive transitions corresponding to different phase regimes of the vortex matter are discussed.
