Multiple peaks in the ac susceptibility of untwinned Y-Ba-Cu-O single crystals: A manifestation of the peak effect
(1994)We have measured the ac susceptibility of several high quality twinned and detwinned YBa2Cu3O7- (YBCO) single crystals. We see multiple peaks in the (T) curves, and explain them as a manifestation of the peak effect in ...
