摘要
The effect of thermal and epithermal neutron irradiation on the superconducting critical temperature and critical current density of some Li-doped YBa2Cu3O7-x, samples was studied. The critical temperature exhibits a peak and the critical current density a valley in their dependence on neutron fluence, for moderate dose. A simple model, based on the Van Hove scenario and the kinetics of the defect production, is used to describe both phenomena.
