Abstract

The effect of low dose γ-irradiation on the hysteresis width and critical current density of thallium fluorine superconductors is reported. We found that addition of fluorine in a controlled manner to the Tl-1223 may enhance the critical current density and make this matterial very sensitive to γ-irradiation.
