Abstract

The basal plane transport critical current density J_c of YBCO epitaxial thin films is strongly anisotropic, leading to large enhancements of J_c when H is precisely parallel to the copper-oxygen planes. Experimental evidence shows that the enhancement is a bulk phenomenon, and the orientation dependence is compared with a model of “intrinsic flux pinning” by the layered crystal structure.
