Abstract

The equilibrium magnetization of grain-aligned HgBa2Ca4Cu5O12+y (Hg1245) with Tc≃108K was measured. The Ginzburg-Landau parameter (κ), obtained by using the Hao-Clem model, increased unphysically with increasing temperature for T∕Tc⩾0.7, which indicates that the fluctuation is greatly enhanced. The two-dimensional scaling behavior of the magnetization and the temperature variation of the irreversibility field Hirr(T) from a power-law behavior at low fields to an exponential behavior at high fields indicate that Hg1245 is highly anisotropic, which seems to be affected by the appearance of antiferromagnetism at the inner CuO2 planes while blocking the coupling of the superconductivity between the outer CuO2 layers.
