In this paper, we present a detailed investigation of the self-field transport properties of an ionic liquid gated ultra-thin YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$ film. From the high temperature dynamic of the resistivity ($> 220 textrm{ K}$) different scenarios pertaining to the interaction between the liquid and the thin film are proposed. From the low temperature evolution of $J_{textrm{c}}$ and $T_{textrm{c}}$ a comparison between the behavior of our system and the standard properties of YBCO is drawn.

Most measurements of critical current densities in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ thin films to date have been performed on films where the textit{c}-axis is grown normal to the film surface. With such films, the analysis of the dependence of $j_c$ on th e magnetic field angle is complex. The effects of extrinsic contributions to the angular field dependence of $j_c$, such as the measurement geometry and disposition of pinning centres, are convoluted with those intrinsically due to the anisotropy of the material. As a consequence of this, it is difficult to distinguish between proposed FLL structure models on the basis of angular critical current density measurements on textit{c}-axis films. Films grown on mis-cut (vicinal) substrates have a reduced measurement symmetry and thus provide a greater insight into the critical current anisotropy. In this paper previous descriptions of the magnetic field angle dependence of $j_c$ in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ are reviewed. Measurements on YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ thin films grown on a range of vicinal substrates are presented and the results interpreted in terms of the structure and dimensionality of the FLL in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$. There is strong evidence for a transition in the structure of the flux line lattice depending on magnetic field magnitude, orientation and temperature. As a consequence, a simple scaling law can not, by itself, describe the observed critical current anisotropy in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$. The experimentally obtained $j_c(theta)$ behaviour of YBCO is successfully described in terms of a kinked vortex structure for fields applied near parallel to the textit{a-b} planes.
Combined action of weak and strong pinning centers on the vortex lattice complicates magnetic behavior of a superconductor since temperature and magnetic field differently affect weak and strong pinning. In this paper we show that contributions of we ak and strong pinning into magnetization of the layered superconductor YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ can be separated and analyzed individually. We performed a careful analysis of temperature behavior of the relaxed superconducting current $J$ in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ films which revealed two components of the current $J = J_1 +J_2$. A simple method of separation of the components and their temperature dependence in low magnetic fields are discussed. We found that $J_1$ is produced by weak collective pinning on the oxygen vacancies in CuO$_2$ planes while $J_2$ is caused by strong pinning on the Y$_2$O$_3$ precipitates. $J_1$ component weakly changes with field and quasi-exponentially decays with temperature, disappearing at $T simeq 30$--40~K. Rapid relaxation of $J_1$ causes formation of the normalized relaxation rate peak at $T simeq 20$~K. $J_2$ component is suppressed by field as $J_2propto B^{-0.54}$ and decays with temperature following to the power law $J_2propto(1 - T/T_mathrm{dp} )^alpha$ where $T_mathrm{dp}$ is the depinning temperature. Detailed comparison of the experimental data with pinning theories is presented.
YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ is a good candidate to systematically study high-temperature superconductivity by nanoengineering using advanced epitaxy. An essential prerequisite for these studies are coherently strained YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ thin f ilms, which we present here using NdGaO$_3$ (110) as a substrate. The films are coherent up to at least 100 nm thickness and have a critical temperature of 89$pm$1 K. The $a$ and $b$ lattice parameters of the YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ are matched to the in-plane lattice parameters of NdGaO$_3$ (110), resulting in a large reduction of the orthorhombicity of the YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$. These results imply that a large amount of structural disorder in the chain layers of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ is not detrimental to superconductivity.

Doping is one of the most relevant paths to tune the functionality of cuprates, it determines carrier density and the overall physical properties of these impressive superconducting materials. We present an oxygen doping study of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-d elta}$ (YBCO) thin films from underdoped to overdoped state, correlating the measured charge carrier density, $n_textrm{H}$, the hole doping, $p$, and the critical current density, $J_textrm{c}$. Our results show a continuous increase of $J_textrm{c}$ with charge carrier density, reaching 90 MA/cm$^2$ at 5 K for $p$-doping at the Quantum Critical Point (QCP), linked to an increase of the superconducting condensation energy. The ultra-high $J_textrm{c}$ achived corresponds to a third of the depairing current, i.e. a value 60 % higher than ever reported in YBCO films. The overdoped regime is characterized by a sudden increase of $n_textrm{H}$, associated to the reconstruction of the Fermi-surface at the QCP. Overdoping YBCO opens a promising route to extend the current carrying capabilities of REBCO coated conductors for applications.
We report numerical simulations of magnetic flux patterns in asymmetric 45$^{circ}$ [001]-tilt grain boundaries in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-x}$ superconducting films. The grain boundaries are treated as Josephson junctions with the critical current density $j_c(x)$ alternating along the junctions. We demonstrate the existence of Josephson vortices with fractional flux quanta for both periodic and random $j_c(x)$. A method is proposed to extract fractional vortices from experimental flux patterns.
