Abstract |
Three types of magnetic phase diagrams can be identified in Ce systems: (I) with ordering temperature T-ord --> 0 continuously, followed by a narrow non-Fermi-liquid (NFL) region, (II) with T-ord vanishing at finite temperature, followed by an extended NFL region, and (III) where the degrees of freedom condensed into the ordered phase decreases, without a concomitant decrease of T-ord. Intrinsic differences are found in the way that the degrees of freedom condense at T-ord and from the rising of the specific heat tails above T-ord. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

Abstract |
We report structural, magnetic and transport measurements on La0.6Sr0.4MnO3 thin films grown on MgO and TiSrO3 substrates with thickness varying from 5 to 500 nm. We find that the lattice mismatch between substrates and films affects the morphology and induced-strains of the films. We show that these two different effects strongly influence the ferromagnetic order, the metal-insulator transition, the localization of the current carriers and the magnetoresistance of these materials.

Abstract |
The film thickness (t) dependence of the magnetic properties of La0.6Sr0.4MnO3 (LSMO) films grown on (001) MgO and (001) SrTiO3 substrates has been studied. Hysteresis loops measured at low temperature show a smooth increase of the retentivity accompanied by a decrease of the coercitive field as the film thickness increases. The increase of coercitivity with decreasing t can be interpreted in terms of a change in the domain structure of the films mainly due to an augmentation of domain pinning defects. The magnetic anisotropy has been measured using ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). A volume (VA) and a surface (SA) anisotropy contribution have been deduced from FMR angular dependence studies for both series of samples. In the LSMO films grown on MgO a VA component that corresponds to an easy-axis perpendicular to the plane of the films has been found while in contrast, the LSMO films grown on SrTiO3 present an easy-plane anisotropy. The SA is positive for both series favoring a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The measured magnetic anisotropy has been assigned to substrate-induced effects.

Abstract |
Experiments were carried out to probe the underdoped insulating material by the Josephson effect. Junctions were fabricated by exploiting the capability of locally photodoping insulating RBa2Cu3O6+x (R = rare earth) material. The existence of an anomalously large proximity effect was confirmed. The critical current of the junctions was consisted with the conventional Josephson relationship. |

Abstract |
We study the dependence of the transport properties of square Josephson Junctions arrays with the direction of the applied dc current, both experimentally and numerically. We present computational simulations of current-voltage curves at finite temperatures for a single vortex in an array of $L\times L$ junctions ($Ha^2/?_0=f=1/L^2$), and experimental measurements in $100\times1000$ arrays under a low magnetic field corresponding to $f\approx0.02$. We find that the transverse voltage vanishes only in the directions of maximum symmetry of the square lattice: the [10] and [01] direction (parallel bias) and the [11] direction (diagonal bias). For orientations different than the symmetry directions, we find a finite transverse voltage which depends strongly on the angle φ of the current. We find that vortex motion is pinned in the [10] direction ($?=0$), meaning that the voltage response is insensitive to small changes in the orientation of the current near $?=0$. We call this phenomenon orientational pinning. This leads to a finite transverse critical current for a bias at $?=0$ and to a transverse voltage for a bias at $?\not=0$. On the other hand, for diagonal bias in the [11] direction the behavior is highly unstable against small variations of φ, leading to a rapid change from zero transverse voltage to a large transverse voltage within a few degrees. This last behavior is in good agreement with our measurements in arrays with a quasi-diagonal current drive. |

Abstract |
We present experiments demonstrating the conditions under which weak interaction between replicas of vortex structures break their translational and rotational symmetry. The Fe clumps introduced by Bitter decorations of vortex structures are used to induce an extremely weak interaction fur subsequent vortex structures in low and high temperature superconducting crystals. The matching between the Fe pattern acid the vortex configuration require the structure to be prepared under quite stringent conditions: The field creating the structure has to be the same in magnitude although it can differ in orientation from that used for the preparation of the Fe pattern. The interaction between vortex replicas as represented by the Fe clumps of Bitter decorations makes it possible to differentiate the vortex nucleation and propagation mechanisms in low and high temperature superconductors. |

Abstract |
We have performed Bitter decoration and ac susceptibility measurements in single-crystal YBa2Cu3O7-delta with oriented twin boundaries. The twin boundaries (TB's) pin vortices over approximately 65% of the sample. The pinned areas are unevenly distributed and some relatively large TB-free regions are present. The Bitter decorations were performed in a 52 Oe de magnetic field rotated off the c axis so that the plane defined by the field direction and the c axis is perpendicular to the TB's. Several decorations were performed in the same sample. Additional dynamical information was obtained from ac susceptibility measurements. Results show that for small tilts the vortices remain locked to the c-axis direction, for angles greater than 12 degrees they form a staircase pattern, and in this case pinning by the twin boundaries remains effective up to 75 degrees. We observe vortex chains in twin-free-zones of the sample for tilted fields at 65 degrees and 40 degrees. Due to our particular experimental arrangement, in the twinned regions the interplay of the potentials giving rise to the chains and the pinning potential produces a structure with a disordered square symmetry. The data allow us to estimate the dominant energy of the vortex system for some inclinations of the applied magnetic field. |

Abstract |
Repeated images of the vortex structure in YBa2Cu3O7-delta Single crystals have been obtained, using the Bitter technique. By removing the iron dots between each decoration experiment, it is possible to image the vortices in different cooldown runs done under the same field and temperature conditions. The images show that these different realizations of a disordered vortex state found in twinned crystals are very similar at long range and differ only in small-scale detail. This is unusual behavior in glassy systems, where expectations are that successive configurations will differ over many scales. In contrast, ordered vortex crystals in clean samples can form with different orientations in different runs, therefore differing at long ranges. Double-sided decorations have been performed in twinned samples, and the correlation between images in both sides of the sample is similar in magnitude but slightly different qualitatively than that found in successive decorations. |

Abstract |
We have studied the response of the vortex lattice (VL) in a YBa2Cu3O7-delta sample with oriented twin boundaries (TB's) and in an untwinned sample. In the twinned sample the density of twin boundaries is estimated from decoration experiments. The TB's affect the liquid-to-solid transition in the vortex structure, which is of first order in the twin free crystal and to a Bose glass in the twinned sample. We measure the ac susceptibility, and find that the response strongly depends on the orientation of the probing ac field with respect to the TB's. The ac field produces a tilting stress on the vortices. With the applied de magnetic field H-dc parallel to the c axis, the response of the VL is weaker when the tilt is parallel to the TB's than when it is perpendicular or at 45 degrees to the TB's. The results are explained by the fact that the VL is locked to the twin boundaries for small deviations of H-dc from the c axis and is partially pinned to them for larger angles. By measuring over the whole angular range we estimate the angles over which each regime is realized for different temperatures. The results of the detwinned sample are used for comparison. |

Abstract |
We present long-term relaxation measurements of the irreversible magnetization in YBa2Cu3O7-delta Single crystals with columnar defects. Within the single vortex pinning regime we find a nonglassy response at intermediate currents, in between the half loops and superkinks glassy regimes. We demonstrate that such behavior is due to double kink excitations whose critical nucleus has a size independent of current, and occur even in the presence of pinning energy dispersion. |
