The magnetic field dependent critical current density $j_c(B)$ of a MgB$_2$ bulk sample has been obtained by means of magnetization hysteresis measurements. The $j_c(B)$ curves at different temperatures demonstrate a crossover from single vortex pinning to small-bundle vortex pinning, when the field is larger than the crossover field $B_{sb}$. The temperature dependence of the crossover field $B_{sb}(T)$ is in agreement with a model of randomly distributed weak pinning centers via the spatial fluctuations of the transition temperature ($delta T_c$-pinning), while pinning due to the mean free path fluctuations ($delta l$-pinning) is not observed.

m-H loops for virgin and neutron irradiated bulk and powder samples of MgB_{2} were measured in the temperature range 5-30 K in magnetic field B<= 1 T. The irradiation at thermal neutron fluences 9*10^{13} and 4.5*10^{14} cm^{-2} caused very small en hancement of m-H loops at lower temperatures (T<20 K), whereas the effect at high temperatures was unclear due to difficulty in achieving exactly the same measurement temperature prior and after irradiation. However, the irradiation at 4.5*10^{15} cm^{-2} produced clear enhancement of m-H loops (hence J_{c}) at all investigated temperatures, which provides the evidence for the enhancement of flux pinning in MgB_{2} due to ion tracks resulting from n+^{10}B reaction. The potential of this technique for the enhancement of flux pinning in high temperature superconductors is briefly discussed.
We have studied flux-pinning effects of MgB$_2$ superconductor by doping (Fe, Ti) particles of which radius is 163 nm on average. 5 wt.% (Fe, Ti) doped MgB$_2$ among the specimens showed the best field dependence of magnetization and 25 wt.% one did the worst at 5 K . The difference of field dependence of magnetization of the two increased as temperature increased. Here we show experimental results of (Fe, Ti) particle-doped MgB$_2$ according to dopant level and the causes of the behaviors. Flux-pinning effect of volume defects-doped superconductor was modeled in ideal state. During the study, we had to divide M-H curve of volume defect-dominating superconductor as three discreet regions for analyzing flux pinning effects, which are diamagnetic increase region, $Delta$H=$Delta$B region, and diamagnetic decrease region. As a result, flux-pinning effects of volume defects decreased as dopant level increased over the optimal dopant level, which was caused by decrease of flux-pinning limit of a volume defect. And similar behaviors are obtained as dopant level decreased below the optimal dopant level, which was caused by the decreased number of volume defects. Comparing the theory with experimental results, deviations increased as dopant level increased over the optimal dopant level, whereas the two was well matched on less dopant level than the optimal dopant level. The behavior is considered to be caused by segregation of volume defects. On the other hand, the property of over-doped specimens dramatically decrease as temperature increases, which is caused by double decreases of flux-pinning limit of a volume defect and segregation effect.
Hydrogen-based compounds under ultra-high pressure, such as the polyhydrides H$_3$S and LaH$_{10}$, superconduct through the conventional electron-phonon coupling mechanism to attain the record critical temperatures known to date. We demonstrate here that the intrinsic advantages of hydrogen for phonon-mediated superconductivity can be exploited in a completely different system, namely two-dimensional (2D) materials. We find that hydrogen adatoms can strongly enhance superconductivity in 2D materials due to flatband states originating from atomic-like hydrogen orbitals, with a resulting high density of states, and due to the emergence of high-frequency hydrogen-related phonon modes that boost the electron-phonon coupling. As a concrete example, we investigate the effect of hydrogen adatoms on the superconducting properties of monolayer MgB$_2$, by solving the fully anisotropic Eliashberg equations, in conjunction with a first-principles description of the electronic and vibrational states, and the coupling between them. We show that hydrogenation leads to a high critical temperature of 67 K, which can be boosted to over 100 K by biaxial tensile strain.
The flux pinning mechanism of NdO0.82F0.18FeAs superconductor made under high pressure, with a critical temperature, Tc, of 51 K, has been investigated in detail in this work. The field dependence of the magnetization and the temperature dependence o f the magnetoresistivity were measured in fields up to 13 T. The field dependence of the critical current density, Jc(B), was analyzed within the collective pinning model. A crossover field, Bsb, from the single vortex to the small vortex bundle pinning regime was observed. The temperature dependence of Bsb(T) is in good agreement with the delta-l pinning mechanism, i.e., pinning associated with fluctuations in the charge-carrier mean free path, l. Analysis of resistive transition broadening revealed that thermally activated flux flow is found to be responsible for the resistivity contribution in the vicinity of Tc. The activation energy U0/kB is 2000 K in low fields and scales as B (-1/3) over a wide field range. Our results indicate that the NdO0.82F0.18FeAs has stronger intrinsic pinning than Bi-2212 and also stronger than MgB2 for H > 8 T.
We report a detailed study of isofield magnetic relaxation and isothermal magnetization measurements with $H$$parallel$c on an underdoped Ba$_{0.75}$K$_{0.25}$Fe$_2$As$_2$ pnictide single crystal, with superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ = 2 8 K. The second magnetization peak (SMP) has been observed at temperatures below $T_c$/2 and vanished at higher temperatures. The observed behaviour of the SMP has been studied by measuring the magnetic field dependence of relaxation rate, $R(H)$ and by performing the Maleys analysis. The results suggest that the crossover from collective to plastic pinning observed in the SMP disappears above 12 K with plastic pinning replacing collective pinning. An interesting $H$-$T$ phase diagram is obtained. The critical current density ($J_c$) was estimated using Beans model and found to be $sim$ $3.4 times 10^9$ A/m$^2$ at 10 K in the SMP region, which is comparable to an optimally doped Ba-KFe$_2$As$_2$ superconductor and may be exploited for potential technological applications. The pinning mechanism is found to be unconventional and does not follow the usual $delta l$ and $delta T_c$ pinning models, which suggest the intrinsic nature of pinning in the compound.
