[18p-B403-10] Grain boundary characteristics of oxypnictide NdFeAs(O,F) superconductors
Keywords:oxypnictide NdFeAs(O, F) thin films, grain boundary characteristics, inter-grain Jc
To characterize the intrinsic nature of grain boundary (GB) for NdFeAs(O,F), the erosion of GB region by the excess of F should be prevented as much as possible. Here we report on the GB characteristics of NdFeAs(O,F) thin films for which NdOF over-layer was deposited at lower temperature. As a result, the critical angle for which Jc starts to fall exponentially is 8.4 degree. This value is almost the same as Co-doped BaFe2As2 and Fe(Se,Te).
