July, 2003; revised manuscript received 15 September, 2003) The magnetic properties of perovskite (La1-xYx)2/3Ca1/3MnO3
(0≤x≤0.3) compounds are systematically investigated and it is given
that the transition temperature Tc is related to average
ion size of La
site. It is found that with the increasing of Y3+ doped content,
the metal-insulator transition temperature TMI (M-I)
shifts to lower temperature. While the relevant resistance peakρp
sharply increases, for the sample of x=0.3, it has enhanced eight
orders of magnitudes larger than the non-doped samples (x=0.0). The
decrease of average ion size of La site and the local distortion of lattice
constant due to the introduction of Y can explain the experimental results.
At high concentration area, say when x>0.1, magnetic studies show a
gradual increase of antiferromagnetic interaction with the
increase of x, ultimately leading to a spin-glass-like state for x=0.2
and x=0.3 compounds at about 35K. Keywords: (La1-xYx)2/3Ca1/3MnO3

230026 Three different compositions of NbTi wires have
been fabricated by using alternately niobium sheets and titanium sheets. The
Ti content may vary from 43WT% to 57WT% by adjusting the relative thickness
of the Nb and Ti sheets in the monofilaments. The effects of different Ti
content on NbTi superconductor′s critical current densities and flux pinning
mechanism were discussed. The Nb/Ti interface microstructure and
cross-sectional morphology diffusion have been investigated by scanning
electron microscopy (SEM). The curve of Fp∝B at different
composition have been fitted. The results show that the critical current
density (Jc) can be improved with higher Ti content in the
low field rang(<5T), but the property was weak and rapidly fall in the
high field. There are two kinds of flux pinning mechanism dot pinning and
subface pinning affect the property in different field. Keywords: NbTi superconductor, critical current densities

April, 2003) The electrochemical oxidation was performed on
oxygen deficient YBa2Cu3O6+x (x~0.1)
bulk samples prepared by solid-state method. The oxidation on anode was
carried out in molten KNO3-NaNO3 at 360℃. The samples
oxidized electrochemically were characterized by resistance, magnetic
susceptibility measurements and XRD analysis. The superconducting volume
fraction increases with oxidation time and charge passed through samples.
Using this method, we can obtain samples with single superconducting 60K
phase or 90K phase and samples containing these two phases. The results of
XRD analysis reveal that the structure of outer layer and inter layer is
different indicating that the distribution of oxygen in samples is
inhomogeneous. Keywords: electrochemical oxidation, YBCO, crystal

April, 2003) The pseudogap-like behavior has been observed in
electro-doped superconductor Sm1.85Ce0.15CuO4
for the first time. The resistivity ρ and thermopower S of
single crystal Sm1.85Ce0.15CuO4 with
different annealing times were measured. The data of temperature dependence
of resistivity indicate that the high temperature resistivity ρ, dρ/dT
and the slope of thermopower dS/dT increase with increasing
annealing time, which presume a decrease of charge density and act as the
decrease of Ce content x. In each annealing procedure, the curve of S~T
and ρ~T change their slopes below a certain temperature T*.
It moves to high temperature region with increase annealing time, and becomes
more and more clear, indicating the opening of a pseudogap under this
temperature. At the same time, a minimum value exists in the thermopower at
certain temperature, which is the manifest of carrier localization. At about
50K, a clear peak of phonon-drag was observed in thermopower, and its
positive value shows a change of sign in charge carrier at low temperature,
which is in accordance with the change of slope in Hall coefficients.

INHOMOGENEITY INTRODUCED BY Zn IMPURITY IN DOPED CUPRATES SONG YUN Department of
Physics, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875 (Received 11
April, 2003) Two-dimensional t-J model with nonmagnetic
Zn impurities is studied based on the fermion-spin theory. Within an improved
Green function theory, we perform numerical calculation for the finite lattices with periodic
boundary conditions, and obtain the inhomogeneities of hole concentration and
local antiferromagnetic correlations around the nonmagnetic Zn impurities. It
is shown that the spin excitations are strongly influenced by the nonmagnetic
impurities because the local antiferromagnetic correlations closest to the
impurities are enhanced. The nearest-neighbor spin correlations also have
strong effect to the energy of hole, as a result a bound state of hole is
formed around the nonmagnetic -c Zn impurity. Keywords:t-J model, fermion-spin theory, Zn impurity PACC:

MgB2 monofilament tape fabricated by “power in tube” method have been

April, 2003) We have built two scanning SQUID microscope for
room temperature samples with LTS SQUID and HTS (YBCO) SQUID respectively.
SQUIDs are mounted on the low end of the finger in Dewar. A thin sapphire
window separates SQUIDs and samples. Samples stay in room temperature. The
distance between SQUIDs and samples can be adjusted with a bellow. The LTS
SQUID microscope has a field sensitivity superior to 3pT/Hz1/2 and
spatial resolution better than 140μm. The HTS SQUID system is of ~46pT/Hz1/2
field sensitivity and ~500μm spatial resolution. Both microscopes can stably
work for a long time in unshielded environment. We also have used them to do
some interesting experiments for magnetic field imaging and nondestructive evaluation (NDE). Keywords: SQUID, microscope, magnetism imaging, nondestructive

Temperature Physics and Engineering, Kharkov, Ukraine The properties
of the magnetic concentration device (i.e. the concentrator) have been
investigated for the potential application in scanning SQUID microscope. It
was suggested that the feature of the concentrator can be characterized by a
concentration parameter K, and a simple model is then proposed, of
which K is dependent on the magnetic permeability of the material and
the demagnetization factor of the device. Systemic studies of permalloy wire
with 0.1mm diameter have been carried out. Experimental results of
dependences of the concentration parameter on device length and excited field
(current) were obtained, respectively. It was established that the
theoretical model can give a good description of the characteristic feature
of the concentrator qualitatively. Keywords: ferromagnetic

April, 2003) We have successfully developed a high-pressure
RHEED accessory with a three-stage differential pumping system for the PLD
equipment in our laboratory. It can be used for in situ monitoring during the
deposition of complex oxides at standard PLD conditions. Oxygen pressure in
the deposition chamber can be increased to as high as 21Pa while fairly clear
RHEED patterns are observable. We monitored the deposition of SrTiO3:Nb, Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3, and YBa2Cu3O7 single layers, as well as Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3/SrTiO3:Nb heterostructure on (001) SrTiO3 substrates. Pattern analyses suggest that all the films are epitaxy with good crystallinity; however the growth mode and film morphology are greatly affected by the ambient during film deposition. In high vacuum, the film tends to grow in the layer-by-layer mode, and the surface roughness is within nanometers; in an oxygen pressure of 5Pa or above, however, the film tends to grow in the island mode with less smooth surface. It is revealed that, in the case of multilayer growth, the crystallinity and surface smoothness of the top layer are limited by the quality of the bottom layer.

trigger unit without a continuous bias current and got the suitable working
regime. The free energy of a coupled double π ring has been
calculated. The result showed that reverse direction coupling has a lower
energy. And without magnetic coupling, the quantum interference effect will
also lead to reverse direction coupling. Keywords: π- ring, spontaneous magnetization,

Superconductivity Laboratory PO Box 2703, Institute of

April, 2003) In high temperature superconducting (HTS) coil,
the loss of stability may be result of the accumulation of heat, which can be
generated from the flux-flow resistance, AC losses and normal-zone
resistance. Hence the stability of a HTS coil under high pulse currents is a
key problem. In this paper, a numerical model was set up to simulate the heat
generation and quench propagation after a high pulse current was applied. The
temperature distribution as a function of time in the coil was calculated.
The simulation is in good agreement with the experimental results. In the AC
cases, a maximum “safe” current can be calculated from our simulation, which
will be very helpful for the design of HTS AC magnets and transformers. Keywords: High temperature superconducting coil, stability, numerical
