Effects of Self-irradiation Damages on PuTGa5 Superconducting Materials
On one hand, PuCoGa5 and PuRhGa5 are new challenging superconductors [1]. On the other hand, irradiation is an effective method to create defects in materials. A lot of suchexperiments are carried out on High Temperature Superconductors in order to increase their critical current density Jc. The self-radiation damages caused by the α-decay of Pu in these materials is a unique opportunity to study the interactions between defects and vortices, as no extra irradiation is required.
