Abstract

The temperature dependence of the decay of persistent current flowing in YBCO and BSCCO ring, is experimentally studied. Among a temperature range from 4K to 89K, the persistent current shows a slow decay at low temperature. However, the current of sintered YBCO at 77K shows a fast decay. In case of melt-textured YBCO and sintered BSCCO, the current decays slowly in any temperatures. Almost all decays can be roughly expressed as straight line in log J vs t plot where J and t are the current and time respectively. This is an exponential decay and not be described by a classical flux creep model. However, the decays play a complex mode at a temperature, near Tc, both in YBCO and BSCCO.
