We present femtosecond time-resolved measurements on the high-Tc superconductor Tl2Ba2Ca2Cu3O10. At temperatures below Tc, we observe a relaxation process which is distinct from the equilibration of hot carriers in the normal state. Our results demonstrate an increasing relaxation rate as the superconducting gap opens. This is consistent with the behavior of conventional metallic superconductors.

Improved cermets having superior properties comprising a ferromagnetic metal and an insulator. By controlling process conditions, cermets having high magnetization and high coercivity as well as chemical stability, wear resistance and corrosion resistance are prepared. The cermets of this invention find particular utility as high density recording media.

The behavior of the critical current density of Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu-O superconducting thin films in a cycling magnetic field was investigated. The hysteresis of the transport Jc manifested similar features to those found in polycrystalline Y-Ba-Cu-O and granular Nb, Al thin films in zero-field cooling. However, a novel result of the transport Jc in field-cooled samples has been observed. The results were attributed to the presence of a saturated trapped magnetic flux in the weaklink network. The effects of temperature on both the trapped flux and the transport Jc suggest the existence of various states of the trapped flux …
