The magnetic properties of heat treated O-series high temperature superconducting (HTS) GdBCO coated conductor (CC) tapes which were formed of Ag/GdBCO/Buffer-layers/Stainless Steel (SS), were investigated by employing a Quantum Design PPMS-14. Using a modified Bean model, the critical current density J_c values have been estimated from the 𝚫m_irr(H) data, which are obtained by measuring the magnetic moment m(H) loops. For a range of intermediate fields, which are interacting or collective flux pinning area, the magnetic flux behaviors were investigated from the relationship J_c ∝ H^-β. In addition, the changes of irreversibility magnetic field H_irr line of heat-treated O-series HTS GdBCO CC tapes were analyzed, according as the annealing temperature under oxygen flowing increases. Both weak and strong break-downs were found by examining the changes of irreversibility magnetic field H_irr lines.

Nanocrystalline materials of Ni and Ni-Cu alloy have been synthesized by the pulsed wire evaporation (PWE) method and these abnormal magnetic properties in the magnetic ordered state have been characterized using both VSM and SQUID in the range of high and low magnetic fields. Ni and Ni-Cu particles with an average size of 20 to 80 nm were found to influence magnetic hysterisis behavior and the results of powder neutron diffraction patterns and saturation magnetization curves are shown to indicate the absence of the NiO phase. The shifted hysterisis loop and irreversibility of the magnetization curve in the high field region were observed in the magnetic-ordered state of both Ni and Ni-Cu. The virgin magnetization curve for Ni slightly spillover on the limited hysterisis loop ($\pm$20kOe). This irreversibility in the high field of 50 kOe can be explained by non-col-linear behavior and the existence of the metastable states of the magnetization at the surface layer (or core) of the particle in the applied magnetic field. Immiscible alloy of Cu-Ni was also found to show irreversibility having two different magnetic phases.

In the course of magnetic study on several perovskite-type oxides, A2Fe(Ⅲ)BO6 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba and B = Sb, Bi), we have observed a strong irreversibility in their dc-magnetizations. When the structural data and the Mossbauer spectra are considered, such an irreversibility is to be associated with some competitions between the nearest-neighbors (nn) and the next-nearest-neighbors (nnn) in their magnetic sublattices. Particularly, the Mossbauer spectra indicate that Sr2FeBiO6 of cubic perovskite-structure is apparently well ordered crystalline compound. Nontheless this antiferromagnet shows a magnetic property which resembles that of a spin-glass. The strong history dependence is observed below 91 K and the irreversible magnetic behavior is also observed from the measurement of hysteresis loops at 10 K after zero-field-cooled (zfc) and field-cooled (fc) processes. Considering the nn and the nnn superexchanges of almost same order in ordered perovskite, it is proposed that there exists a competition and cancellation of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic superexchange between the nearest-neighbors and the next-nearest-neighbors, thus introducing a certain degree of frustration.

The phase transition of vortex matter from solid to liquid was studied in iron-based superconductors. Based on the traditional vortex glass theory, we have examined the magnetoresistivity data of iron-based superconductors using our extended thermal activation model: $\rho(B,T)=\rho((T-T_g(B))/(T_c(0)-T_g(B)))^{v(z-1)}$. We predict that the magnetic field-dependent area S + $S_0$ which integrates $\rho$ with T is proportional to $B^{\beta}$, where ${\beta}$ is the vortex glass transition exponent. From our calculation, the vortex glass transition exponent is 0.33, close to the exponent of area $S_0$ + S is 0.31 in $SmO_{0.9}F_{0.1}FeAs$; the exponent of area S is 0.63, which is close to the irreversibility line exponent 2/3. Both of the results show the validity of our model. In addition, our model is shown to be effective in describing irreversibility behavior in layered superconductors.

$MgB_2$ doped with $TiO_2$ was prepared by the in-situ solid state reaction to study the effects of $TiO_2$ dopant on the flux pinning behavior of $MgB_2$ superconductor. From the field-cooled and the zero-field-cooled temperature dependences of magnetization, the realms of vortex-glass and vortex-liquid states of $TiO_2$-doped $MgB_2$ were determined in the H-T diagram (the temperature dependence of upper critical magnetic field and irreversibility line). The critical current density was estimated from the width of hysteresis loops in the framework of Beam's model at different temperatures. The results indicate that nano-scale $TiO_2$ inclusions play a role of the effective pinning centers and lead to the enhanced upper critical field and critical current density. It is suggested that the grain-boundary pinning mechanism is realized in $TiO_2$-doped $MgB_2$ superconductor.

We have studied the $TiO_2$ doping effects on the flux pinning behavior of an $MgB_2$ superconductor synthesized by the in-situ solid-state reaction. From the field-cooled and zero-field-cooled temperature dependences of magnetization, the reversible-irreversible transition of $TiO_2$-doped $MgB_2$ was determined in the H-T diagram (the temperature dependence of upper critical magnetic field and irreversibility line). For comparison, the similar measurements are also obtained from SiC-doped $MgB_2$. The critical current density was estimated from the width of hysteresis loops in the framework of Bean's model at different temperatures. The obtained results manifest that nano-scale $TiO_2$ inclusions served as effective pinning centers and lead to the enhanced upper critical field and critical current density. It was concluded that the grain boundary pinning mechanism was realized in a $TiO_2$-doped $MgB_2$ superconductor.

Cu$_{0.1}$Fe$_{0.9}$Cr$_2$S$_4$에 대하여 x-선 회절기(XRD), 진동 시료 자화율 측정기(VSM), Mossbauer 분광기, 자기저항(Magnetoresistance;MR)법을 이용하여 시료의 결정학적 및 자기적 특성을 연구하였다. 결정구조는 cubic spinel 구조이며, 격자 상수는 a$_{0}$=9.9880 $\AA$이었다. 자기저항(MR)실험 결과 110 K 이하에서는 반도체적 거동을, 100 K 이상에서는 도체적인 거동을 보인다. VSM 실험결과 100 Oe 인가 자장 하에서 zero-field-cooling(ZFC)와 field-cooling(FC) 사이에 커다란 비가역적 첨점 형태가 관측되었다. 5 kOe인가 자장 하에서 포화자화값이 온도 상승과 더불어 110 K 까지 증가되는 현상이 관측되었다. 15 K∼300 K의 온도 범위에 걸쳐서 Mossbauer스펙트럼을 분석한 결과 전기사중극자 분열치가 Neel온도 이하에서 나타나기 시작하여 온도가 하강하면서 점차 증가하고 공명선의 선폭이 비대칭적으로 굵어짐을 볼 수 있었다. 이것은 동적 Jahn-Teller뒤틀림이 일어나고 있는 것으로 해석된다. Fe 이온의 전하상태는 +2이며, 초미세 자기장은 온도가 상승함에 따라 극저온에서 100 K 부근까지 증가하다가 감소하는 현상이 나타났다. 이것은 반대방향의 orbital current field(H$_{L}$)와 Fermi contact field(H$_{C}$) 사이의 상쇄효과로 해석된다.

Production of $MgB_2$ film on metallic Hastelloy with SiC as the buffer layer was achieved by means of hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition technique, whereas SiC buffer layers with varied thickness of 170 and 250 nm were fabricated inside a pulsed laser deposition chamber. Superconducting transition temperature and critical current density were verified by transport and magnetic measurement, respectively. With SiC buffer layer, the reduced delaminated area at the interface of $MgB_2$-Hastelloy and the slightly increased $T_c$ of $MgB_2$ tapes were clearly noticed. It was found that the upper critical field, the irreversibility field and the critical current density were reduced when $MgB_2$ tapes were buffered with SiC buffer layer. Clarifying the mechanism of SiC buffer layer in $MgB_2$ tape in affecting the superconducting properties is considerably important for practical applications.

We report the magnetic-field dependence of the irreversible magnetization of binary superconductor $MgB_2$. For the temperature region of $T\;<\;0.9T_c$, the contribution of the bulk pinning to the magnetization overwhelms that of the surface pinning. This was evident from the fact that the magnetization curves, M(H), were well described by the critical-state model without considering the reversible magnetization and the surface pinning effect. It was also found that the M(H) curves at various temperatures scaled when the field and the magnetization were normalized by the characteristic caling factors H$\ast$(T) and M$\ast$(T), respectively. This feature suggests that the pinning mechanism determining the hysteresis in M(H) is unique below $T\;=\;T_c$.

Magnetization studies were conducted on a single crystal of $YNi_{2}$$B_{2}$C superconductor. The 17 mg crystal was studied at temperatures T from above $T_{c}$ (15.5 K) to 3 K, in the magnetic fields H // c-axis up to 6 tesla. The crystal exhibited little magnetic irreversibility, with a critical current density $CO_{3}$ ~ $10^{-4}$ $\times$ $CO_{3}$, the depairing current density. Near $T_{c}$, the equilibrium magnetization M was London-like with M $\infty$ In(H). The upper critical field $H_{c2}$ of the single crystal $YNi_{2}$$B_{2}$C was estimated by the several alternative approaches such as standard London limit, Ginzburg-Landau, and Abrikosov relations. The estimated $H_{c2}$values agree relatively well with each other approaches.
