| Abstract |
We report a novel magnetic-field dependence of the critical-current density Jc in artificially grown Ge/Pb superlattices. In these layered structures Jc exhibits an unexpected minimum as a function of perpendicular applied field, unlike any ever observed in other superconductor systems. The systematic evolution of this minimum as a function of layer thicknesses, temperature and pinning strength is related to either flux-lattice decoupling or melting. |

| Abstract |
A high sensitivity capacitance torquemeter has been used for a comprehensive investigation of the induced current densities and dynamic relaxation rates in a YBa2Cu3Oxn film with nominal oxygen content varying between xn=6.55 and xn=7.0. The dynamic relaxation rate Q does not extrapolate to zero at T=0 K, indicating the presence of quantum creep. By changing the oxygen content of the film it is possible to investigate the relation between the quantum creep rate Q(0) and the normal-state resistivity pn(0) at low temperature. Although Q(0) increases monotonically with pn, it is found that Q(0) is not proportional to pn(0), in contrast to the predictions of a theory based on dissipative tunneling of collectively pinned single vortices [Blatter et al., Rev. Mod. Phys. 66, 1125 (1994)]. The experimental results imply that in YBa2Cu3O7 quantum creep takes place in a transition regime between Hall tunneling and dissipative tunneling. For lower oxygen contents the quantum creep regime moves towards the dissipative limit. For each oxygen content the characteristic pinning energy Uc(0) at T=0 is obtained by a linear extrapolation to T= 0 K of the T/Q versus T curves. The critical current density jc at T=0 is determined independently by a linear extrapolation of the measured Injs versus T curves. A power-law relation Uc(0)?[jc(0)]p with p? 0.5 is found, indicating single vortex pinning at higher temperatures. This is confirmed by a detailed analysis of the measured current densities and relaxation rates by means of the generalized inversion scheme developed by Schnack et al. [Phys. Rev. B 48, 13 178 (1993)]. For xn? 6.6 at Be= 0.6 T and for xn? 6.7 at Be= 2.0 T the calculated temperature dependence of jc and Uc agrees remarkably well with a model based on three-dimensional single vortex pinning caused by spatial fluctuations in the charge carrier mean free path. At lower oxygen contents and higher magnetic-fields the agreement gradually breaks down due to the increasing importance of thermal fluctuations. |

| Abstract |
We report on the photoinduced enhancement of the critical temperature ?Tc and the in-plane conductivity ??ab measured in a c-axis-oriented YBa2Cu3Ox film as a function of oxygen concentration (6.4?x?7). Both ?Tc and ??ab decrease with the oxygen content, display a plateaulike behavior for 6.6?x?6.75, and become zero at x=7. This dependence of ?Tc on x is similar to that observed for the Tc enhancement due to ordering effects in oxygen-deficient YBa2Cu3Ox single crystals. We propose that the persistent photoinduced changes in YBa2Cu3Ox films are due to photoassisted oxygen ordering. |

| Abstract |
We report on measurements of in-plane resistivity ?ab(T) and Hall coefficient RH(T) in c-axis-oriented oxygen-deficient YBa2Cu3Oxn thin films. Independent of the changes induced in RH(T) and ?ab(T) by the oxygen depletion, a quadratic temperature dependence is observed for the Hall angle ?H. The slope of cot?H versus T2 decreases as the oxygen content xn is reduced and saturates in the Tc(xn)=60 K plateau region. The results are discussed in the framework of the two-dimensional Luttinger liquid theory as proposed by Anderson. |

| Abstract |
We show that illumination of oxygen-deficient metallic YBa2Cu3Ox films produces a change in the Hall coefficient, an increase in the critical temperature, and a decrease in the electrical resistivity. These changes relax to equilibrium with characteristic times of the order of days, and are due to variations in both the carrier density and mobility. The relaxation times are of the same order of magnitude as the ones measured in nonilluminated oxygen-deficient films immediately after quenching. |

| Abstract |
The photoinduced enhancement of superconductivity in RBa2Cu3Ox (R=rare earth or yttrium) and PryR1-yBa2Cu3Ox was explored through temperature-dependent resistivity, Hall coefficient and mobility, and x-ray diffraction measurements. The increases in Tc are enhanced near the metal-insulator transition, although photoinduced changes always exist in oxygendeficient samples. Several explanations, including intergrain Josephson coupling, photoassisted oxygen ordering, and the trapping of photogenerated electrons in oxygen vacancies, are discussed. |

| Abstract |
We have studied the critical field and irreversibility line on the magnetization of the ceramic oxide LiTi2O4. The irreversibility line scales with the critical field while the coherence length of the material changes by a factor of two. This universal behavior indicates that the origin of the irreversibility line does not depend on extrinsic factors and relies solely on the intrinsic superconducting parameters of the material. |

| Abstract |
We have invesitgated several superconducting properties of oxygen defiecient YBa2Cu3Ox thin films, with oxygen contents ranging from x = 6.55 to x = 7. By means of torque magnetometry, the temperature dependence of the superconducting current dendity js and relaxation rate of the magnetization Q is measured in an (almost perpendicular) applied magnetic induction of 0.6 T. As the oxygen content is reduced, js decreases, whereas Q increases. Both properties are influenced by the decreased dpoing level as well as the enhanced anisotropy of oxygen depleted YBa2Cu3Ox. Using the Generalixed Inversion Scheme derived by Schnak et al. we obtain the current dependence of the activation energy U(f). We show that U(j) is lowered when the oxygen content is reduced. |

| Abstract |
A universal relation cot?H??{variant}/RHB = ?T2 + C for the Hall angle ?H has been experimentally observed served in a wide variety of high-Tc systems. In contrast to the linear temperature dependence of the resistivity ?{variant} or the inverse Hall coefficient R-1H, the T2-dependence of cot?H remains valid in under- and overdoped systems. We present a systematic study of cot?H(T) in oxygen deficient epitaxial YBa2Cu3Ox thin films. We find evidence for a linear relation between ?, the slope of cot?H versus T2, and the carrier concentration. Moreover, we find a steep increase in the intercept C = cot?H (T = 0) below x ? 6.6. |
