Abstract

The resonance frequency ω and damping Γ of two selected reeds of Bi-Ca-Sr-Cu-O ceramics were measured between 4.2 and 100 K in different applied magnetic fields up to 0.3 T. The samples showed large anomalies in ω and Γ at ≃60 and ≃45 K indicating the existence of different superconducting phases. These anomalies can be interpreted in terms of pinning and hysteretic motion of flux lines. Within experimental resolution x-ray-powder patterns resemble that of the 85-K superconductor Bi2CaSr2Cu2O8.
