Abstract

We have demonstrated the existence of circumferential persistent currents in Ba₂YCu₃O₇ ceramic toroids at 77 and 4.2 K and in thin films at 77 K. The field dependence of the critical current densities obtained from these persistent current measurements at 77 K is in fair agreement with that obtained from transport measurements. The persistent critical current densities for fields less than 10 G are 150 A/cm² for the ceramic at 77 K and 10⁵ A/cm² for the thin film. A long term experiment showed that the resistivity is less than 3×10 ^-18 Ω cm at 77 K.
