摘要
Ta-sheathed SmFeAsO0.8F0.2 superconducting wires with T-c = 52.5 K have been fabricated using the powder-in-tube (PIT) method and the superconducting properties of the wires have been investigated. The wires exhibit a very large intragrain critical current density at a temperature below 30 K. A peak effect with maximal J(c) = 0.6 MA cm(-2) at 10 K under 6 T field was observed. The peak field H-pear is strongly temperature-dependent. A severe weak-link effect depresses the development of global supercurrent owing to a very short coherence length. The wires also show a power law temperature dependence for the irreversibility line with H-irr congruent to (1-T/T-c)(1.5). The H-T phase diagram was found to be similar to that of other superconducting cuprates.
