Abstract

In this study c-axis-correlated pinning centers which are known to increase the critical current density (J_c) for B || c-axis were produced by heavy-ion-irradiation in REBa₂Cu₃O_y (RE: rare earth element RE123) coated conductors and the subsequent changes in J _c were measured. A peak in the angular dependence of J_c induced by the defects was observed for applied magnetic fields of up to 13T for Er123 films with matching fields of B_φ = 0.1 and 1 T. We found that the columnar defects led to improvements in J_c even under applied magnetic fields more than 130 times higher than B_φ.
