Superconducting and normal state properties of quasi-one-dimensional Nb2Pd(S0.9Te0.1)5 system

A comprehensive study of superconducting and normal state properties of Nb 2 Pd(S 0.9 Te 0.1 ) 5 system which consists of solid chunks embedded with mesh of fibers has been presented here. Below the superconducting transition temperature, in different iso-magnetic fields, the motion of vortices in mixed state has been analyzed using thermally activated flux flow (TAFF) model and the obtained thermal activation energy (TAE) follows Kramer’s...
