The fluxuation-induced magnetoconductivity of the Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+x phase is studied above zero-field critical temperature T-c(0) and for moderate magnetic fields. It is found that the Gaussian approximation for superconducting fluctuations underestimates the negative fluctuation magnetoconductance drastically in the T-c(0) < T < T-c(0) + 20 K temperature range. Taking into account the critical fluctuation contribution on the base of self-consistent Hartree approximation makes it possible to explain the data quantitatively in terms of the only Aslamazov-Larkin contribution for different magnetic fields and temperatures consistently with the zero field data.

Abstract
The fluxuation-induced magnetoconductivity of the Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+x phase is studied above zero-field critical temperature T-c(0) and for moderate magnetic fields. It is found that the Gaussian approximation for superconducting fluctuations underestimates the negative fluctuation magnetoconductance drastically in the T-c(0) < T < T-c(0) + 20 K temperature range. Taking into account the critical fluctuation contribution on the base of self-consistent Hartree approximation makes it possible to explain the data quantitatively in terms of the only Aslamazov-Larkin contribution for different magnetic fields and temperatures consistently with the zero field data.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
