Notes:
In this paper the limitations and perspectives of a simple remanent field technique for the determination of the critical current density (jc) in high-temperature superconductor (HTSC) thin films and in HTSC thin-film multilayers at 77 K were examined. As the comparison with resistive jc measurements on microbridges shows, jc values down to 104 A/cm2 can easily be measured with high accuracy. The method is nondestructive, fast, and inexpensive. It is especially suitable for jc measurements of double-sided coated substrates, where the determination of the individual jc values of both thin-film layers is possible.
