Evolution of the fishtail-effect in pure and Ag-doped MG-YBCO

We report on magnetic measurements carried out in a textured YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ and YBa$_2$(Cu$_{1-x}$Ag$_x$)$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ (at $x \approx$ 0.02) crystals. The so-called fishtail-effect (FE) or second magnetization peak has been observed in a wide temperature range 0.4~$<T/T_c<$~0.8 for $\textbf{H}\parallel c$. The origin of the FE arises for the competition between surface barrier and bulk pinning. This is confirmed in a non-monotonically behavior of the relaxation rate $R$. The value $H_{max}$ for Ag-doped crystals is larger than for the pure one due to the presence of additional pinning centers, above all on silver atoms.

Influence of aging on fishtail-effect in pure and Ag-doped MG-YBCO

$M(B)$-curves were experimentally investigated. Fishtail-effect (FE) was observed in MG YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ and YBa$_2$(Cu$_{1-x}$Ag$_x$)$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ (at $x \approx$ 0.02) crystals in a wide temperature range 0.4 $<T/T_c<$ 0.8 at the orientation of magnetic field $\textbf{H}\parallel c$. It was obtained that the influence of bulk pinning on FE is more effective at low temperatures while surface barriers dominates at high temperatures. The value $H_{max}$ for Ag-doped crystals is larger than for a pure one that due to the presence of additional pinning centers, above all on silver atoms.

Evolution of Fishtail-effect with aging in pure and Ag-doped MG-YBCO

$M(B)$-curves were experimentally investigated. Fishtail-effect (FE) was observed in MG YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ and YBa$_2$Cu$_{3-x}$Ag$_x$O$_{7-δ}$ (at $x \approx$ 0.02) crystals in a wide temperature range 40 K $<T<$ 75 K at the orientation of magnetic field $\textbf{H}\parallel c$. It was obtained that the influence of bulk pinning on FE is more effective at low temperatures while the influence of surface barriers is more effective at high temperatures. The value $H_{max}$ for Ag-doped crystals is larger than for a pure one that due to the presence of additional pinning centers, above all on silver atoms.
