Oy-coated conductors creates different morphologies of columnar defects (CDs) depending on the irradiation angles relative to the c-axis: continuous CDs with a larger diameter are formed for oblique irradiation at

, whereas the same ion beam at a different angle ( = 0) induces the formation of discontinuous CDs. The direction-dependent morphologies of CDs significantly affect the angular behavior of the critical current density

Times Cited Count：6 Percentile：26.77(Physics, Applied)In order to reveal the influence of crossing angle of one-dimensional pinning centers on angular dependence of critical current density Jc, heavy-ion irradiation was performed to introduce columnar defects (CDs) crossing relative to the c-axis into GdBCO coated conductors, where the splay plane consisting of the two directions of CDs is parallel to the current flow direction. For the sample containing CDs with 15, a single and sharp peak was observed around B
c in the angular dependence of Jc. When the crossing angle was extended to 45, the single Jc-peak became broader, which was a gently-sloping mountain-like shape centered at Bc. For 75, on the other hand, a quite different behaviour of Jc from the other irradiated samples was observed, which was analogous to the angular dependence of Jc typical of three dimensional pinning centers.

Times Cited Count：11 Percentile：49.14(Engineering, Electrical & Electronic)To investigate the effect of discontinuity of 1-D pinning centers on the flux pinning in a wide range of magnetic field directions, discontinuous columnar defects (CDs) and continuous CDs were formed in GdBCO coated conductors using Xe-ion irradiations with 80 and 270 MeV, respectively. An overall shift upward in Jc, for the 80-MeV-irradiated sample compared to the 270-MeV-irradiated one, can be observed in every direction of magnetic field, which is more remarkable as temperature decreases. This implies a synergetic effect of the pinning interaction between the linearity and the discontinuity for the discontinuous CDs.

Times Cited Count：8 Percentile：41.25(Engineering, Electrical & Electronic)To investigate whether one dimensional pinning centers (1D PCs) can attain the isotropic critical current density (
) properties, columnar defects (CDs) crossing at widespread angles were installed by heavy-ion irradiations into YBCO thin films. For the sample containing the CDs crossing relative to the 
-axis, the plateau-like behavior of

-plane where a dip structure is accompanied by a rapid decline of the . For the bimodal splay configuration consisting of CDs crossing relative to the -axis, a single peak around the -axis is observed in the angular dependence of , suggesting the splay effect at B -axis by the crossed CDs. Two parallel families of CDs crossing relative to the -plane, on the other hand, bring about not a peak but a dip around B -plane on the angular dependence of .
