5 Questions
What is the magnetising behavior of type-I superconductors?
They expel all the magnetic field abruptly and become ideal diamagnetic material
What happens to the magnetisation of type-I superconductors at the critical magnetising field?
It decreases abruptly and the material becomes normal
What is the magnetising behavior of type-II superconductors?
They lose magnetisation gradually rather than abruptly
What happens to the magnetic flux lines in type-II superconductors at the lower critical field (HC1)?
The flux starts penetrating into the material
What happens to type-II superconductors at the upper critical field?
The material returns to its normal state
