摘要
The magnetic properties of heterostructures of high-temperature superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-delta and highly spin polarized, ferromagnetic La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 that are electronically decoupled by a thin SrTiO3 layer are investigated by means of SQUID magnetometry. Below the transition temperature of the superconducting component the detected signal is a measure for the critical current in the superconductor. The obtained magnetic hysteresis loops at low temperatures exhibit a substantial asymmetry with respect to H=0. This can be understood in terms of pinning of flux lines in the superconducting film due to magnetic interaction with the ferromagnetic manganite layer.
