Abstract

Magneto-resistances of the YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ based coated conductors fabricated on the tilted single crystalline Ni substrates and RABiTS (rolling assisted bi-axially textured substrate) were measured under various magnetic fields. The activation energies of vortices were estimated from them by fitting equation of p = p$_o$ exp(-U(H,T)/k$_B$T). When currents flew in the rolling direction for the case of the tilted single crystalline YBCO on the RATS, the activation energies were similar to those of c-axis normal YBCO films on the SrTiO$_3$ single crystal substrates [5] and were slightly larger than those of the RABiTS coated conductors. On the contrary, for the currents flowing in the transverse direction, the magnetoresistances show double transitions in the temperature with much smaller activation energies.
