摘要
The time decay of the zero field cooled diamagnetic magnetization of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 single crystals can be explained in terms of a characteristic relaxation time tau(0) and a mean activation energy E which is proportional to the reciprocal magnetic field. We find that tau(0) becomes extremely long to be around 10 s at low temperatures below 14 K. This low temperature phase in the vortex solid region is also directly confirmed by the ac susceptibility measurements in the ultra low frequency range. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.
