Magnetic Flux Distribution in YBCO Thin Films Investigated via XMCD Microscopy at Low Temperatures — •Julian Simmendinger1, Claudia Stahl1, Stephen Ruoß1, Markus Weigand1, Gisela Schütz1, and Joachim Albrecht2 — 1Max-Planck-Institute for Intelligent Systems, Heisenbergstraße 3, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany — 2Research Institute for Innovative Surfaces, FINO, Aalen University, Beethovenstraße 1, 73430 Aalen
The magnetic flux distribution of high-Tc YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) thin films exhibits structures within the submicrometer regime. Therefore scanning x-ray microscopy based on the x-ray magnetic circular dichroism effect (XMCD) is our method of choice revealing very high spatial resolution of both surface structure and magnetization distribution [1,2]. Introducing an XMCD sensitive, soft-magnetic CoFeB respectively Py sensor layer wherein the magnetic stray field of the superconductor is mapped [3], the critical current density and its dependency of the defect structure in the YBCO thin films are imaged and analyzed.
The measurements were carried out at the scanning x-ray microscope MAXYMUS at Bessy II, HZB Berlin utilizing a new low temperature setup.
