The magnetization and anisotropic electrical transport properties have been measured in high quality Cu0.03TaS2 single crystal. A pronounced peak effect has been observed, indicating that the high quality and homogeneity are vital to peak effect. A kink has been observed in the magnetic field H dependence of the in-plane resistivity {rho}ab for H || c, which corresponds to a transition from activated to diffusive behavior of vortex liquid phase. In the diffusive regime of the vortex liquid phase, the in-plane resistivity {rho}ab shows {rho}ab $propto$ H0.3 relation, which does not follow the Bardeen-Stephen law for free flux flow. Finally, a simplified vortex phase diagram of Cu0.03TaS2 for H || c is given.

The carrier transport and the motion of a vortex system in the electron-doped high-temperature superconductors Nd2-xCexCuO4 in underdoped and optimally doped (x = 0135, 0.145, 0.15) regions, in the area of the evolution from antiferromagnetic to supe rconducting order were investigated. To study the anisotropy of the transport properties of highly layered NdCeCuO system we have synthesized Nd2-xCexCuO4/SrTiO3 epitaxial films of three types with different orientations of the c-axis and conductive CuO2 layers relative to the substrate. Such a set of samples allowed us to study the processes of both standard (in the CuO2 layers) and lateral (across the CuO2 layers) carrier transfer in the normal and the mixed states of a superconductor. In a flux-flow regime, in magnetic field B, the dynamics of Abrikosov (B||c-axis) and Josephson (B||ab-plane) vortices are thoroughly investigated and analyzed which is perspective for scientific purposes and for practical applications in measurement technology.
The competition of magnetic order and superconductivity is a key element in the physics of all unconventional superconductors, e.g. in high-transition-temperature cuprates 1, heavy fermions 2 and organic superconductors3. Here superconductivity is of ten found close to a quantum critical point where long-range antiferromagnetic order is gradually suppressed as a function of a control parameter, e.g. charge carrier doping or pressure. It is believed that dynamic spin fluctuations associated with this quantum critical behaviour are crucial for the mechanism of superconductivity. Recently high-temperature superconductivity has been discovered in iron-pnictides providing a new class of unconventional superconductors4,5,6. Similar to other unconventional superconductors the parent compounds of the pnictides exhibit a magnetic ground state7,8 and superconductivity is induced upon charge carrier doping. In this Letter the structural and electronic phase diagram is investigated by means of x-ray scattering, MuSR and Moessbauer spectroscopy on the series LaO1-xFxFeAs. We find a discontinuous first-order-like change of the Neel temperature, the superconducting transition temperature and of the respective order parameters. Our results strongly question the relevance of quantum critical behaviour in ironpnictides and prove a strong coupling of the structural orthorhombic distortion and the magnetic order both disappearing at the phase boundary to the superconducting state.

We show that a constriction-type Josephson junction realized by an epitactic thin film of a d-wave superconductor with an appropriate boundary geometry exhibits intrinsic phase differences between 0 and pi depending on geometric parameters and temper ature. Based on microscopic Eilenberger theory, we provide a general derivation of the relation between the change of the free energy of the junction and the current-phase relation. From the change of the free energy, we calculate phase diagrams and discuss transitions driven by geometric parameters and temperature.
We investigated the magnetic phase diagram of the first Pr-based heavy fermion superconductor PrOs4Sb12 by means of high-resolution dc magnetization measurements in low temperatures down to 0.06K. The temperature dependence of the magnetization M(T) at 0.1kOe exhibits two distinct anomalies at Tc1=1.83K and Tc2=1.65K, in agreement with the specific heat measurements at zero field. Increasing magnetic field H, both Tc1(H) and Tc2(H) move toward lower temperatures without showing a tendency of intersecting to each other. Above 10kOe, the transition at Tc2(H) appears to merge into a line of the peak effect which is observed near the upper critical field Hc2 in the isothermal M(H) curves, suggesting a common origin for these two phenomena. The presence of the field-induced ordered phase (called phase A here) is confirmed for three principal directions above 40kOe, with the anisotropic A-phase transition temperature TA: TA[100] > TA[111] >TA[110]. The present results are discussed on the basis of crystalline-electrical-field level schemes with a non-magnetic ground state, with emphasis on a Gamma1 singlet as the possible ground state of Pr3+ in PrOs4Sb12.
Second magnetization peak (SMP) in hole-doped cuprates and iron pnictide superconductors has been widely explored. However, similar feature in the family of electron-doped cuprates is not common. Here, we report the vortex dynamics study in the singl e crystal of an electron-doped cuprate Pr$_{0.87}$LaCe$_{0.13}$CuO$_4$ superconductor using dc magnetization measurements. A SMP feature in the isothermal $M(H)$ was observed for $H$$parallel$$ab$-planes. On the other hand, no such feature was observed for $H$$parallel$$c$-axis in the crystal. Using magnetic relaxation data, a detailed analysis of activation pinning energy via collective creep theory suggests an elastic to plastic creep crossover across the SMP. Moreover, for $H$$parallel$$ab$, a peak in the temperature dependence of critical current density is also observed near 7 K, which is likely be related to a dimensional crossover (3D-2D) associated to the emergence of Josephson vortices at low temperatures. The anisotropy parameter obtained $gamma$ $approx$ 8-11 indicates the 3D nature of vortex lattice mainly for $H$$parallel$$c$-axis. The $H$-$T$ phase diagrams for $H$$parallel$$c$ and $H$$parallel$$ab$ are presented.
