Anomalous Second Magnetization Peak in 12442-Type RbCa2Fe4As4F2 Superconductors

The second magnetization peak(SMP) appears in most superconductors and is crucial for the understanding of vortex physics as well as the application. Although it is well known that the SMP is related to the type and quantity of disorder/defects, the mechanism has not been universally understood. We selected three stoichiometric superconducting RbCa₂Fe₄As₄F₂ single crystals with identical superconducting critical temperature T_c ～31 K and simi...     

Critical Current Density,Vortex Pinning,and Phase Diagram in the NaCl-Type Superconductors InTe1-xSex(x = 0, 0.1, 0.2)

Research of vortex properties in type-Ⅱ superconductors is of great importance for potential applications and fundamental physics. Here, we present a comprehensive study of the critical current density Jc, vortex pinning,and phase diagram of Na Cl-type In Te_1-x Se_x(x = 0, 0.1, 0.2) superconductors synthesized by high-pressure technique. Our studies reveal that the values of Jc calculated by the Bean model exceed 10⁴A/cm² in the In Te_1-x Se
