Abstract

Recent experimental evidence for the presence of nanostructures (stripe-like features or nanodomains) in HTSC, implies that the flow of the transport current through these materials could occur through quasi-1D filaments, and consequently HTSC materials could behave like a glass with their properties governed by a 2D network of superconducting and normal filaments. We investigated the resistive transport properties of HTSC (YBCO and TBCCO) and their dependence on time, in the normal and the superconducting states.
