single crystals for
and
-planes. To avoid the difficulty of
determinations due to the flux pinning, we developed a novel method using a miniature hall-sensor array which can evaluate the local magnetic induction ai each sensor position. The hall sensor which is placed on the edge of the crystal clearly resolves the first flux penetration from the Meissner state. The temperature dependence of
for
is well scaled by the in-plane penetration depth and is consistent with a full-gap superconducting state. The anistropy of
at low temperatures is estimated to be
3, which is much smaller than of
. This indicates the multiband superconductivity, in which the active bands for superconductivity are more two-dimensional.

Critical-state like flux distributions and the magnitude and temperature dependence of the critical current demonstrate bulk vortex pinning by oxygen vacancies at all temperatures.

Times Cited Count:97 Percentile:93.9(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Local magnetic measurements are used to quantitatively characterize heterogeneity and flux line pinning in PrFeAsO and NdFeAs(O,F)superconducting single crystals. In spite of spatial fluctuations of the critical current density on the macroscopic scale, it is shown that the major contribution comes from collective pinning of vortex lines by microscopic defects by the mean-free path fluctuation mechanism. The defect density extracted from experiment corresponds to the dopant atom density, which means that dopant atoms play an important role both in vortex pinning and in quasi-particle scattering.
