Anisotropy and internal-field distribution ofMgB2in the mixed state at low temperatures

Abstract: Magnetization and muon spin relaxation on MgB 2 were measured as a function of the applied magnetic field at 2 K. Both indicate an inverse-squared penetration depth strongly decreasing with increasing field H below about 1 T. Magnetization also suggests the anisotropy of the penetration depth increases with increasing H, interpolating between a low H c1 and a high H c2 anisotropy. Measurements of the torque as a function of the angle between the field and the c axis of the crystal are in agreement with this fi… Show more

“…These are manifested in measurements of the ratios of the upper critical fields γ H = H ⊥c c2 /H c c2 for magnetic fields along the c−axis and the ab−plane and of the London penetration depth γ λ = λ c /λ ab . 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14 The preponderance of experiments are in agreement with regard to the temperature dependence of γ H , which shows increase from γ H ≈ 2.0 around T c to γ H ≈ 6 at low temperatures. 6,7,14 However, the temperature dependence of γ λ , in particular under applied magnetic field, is not settled yet.…”

“…An increase of the anisotropy with increasing field was found in MgB 2 (Ref. 54), whereas the anisotropy parameter was found to be field independent, at least up to 1.4 T, in the pnictides. 69 In both superconductors, mixing of two superconducting bands explains very well the field dependence of the anisotropy parameter and of the superfluid density.…”

“…In MgB 2 the field dependence of λ is explained by the fast suppression of the π band by the magnetic field (see e.g. [30]). Thus, the observation of nearly the same temperature dependences of λ measured in different fields is an additional argument pointing to the conventional character of superconductivity in RbOs 2 O 6 .…”
