dc.description.abstractIn this article, we report current-voltage measurements carried out on a Bi2Sr2CaCu2O (x) whisker in a large temperature range below the critical temperature with and without applied magnetic field. We examine the critical current peak effect and the vortex dynamics at low field. The critical current peak effect consists of the initial increase of the critical current that subsequently decreases as the applied field is increased. For current-voltage measurements, this effect is associated with a change in the current-voltage curves that are typical of the flux flow regime at low fields and resemble flux creep characteristics for higher fields. As a general rule, our observations are consistent with the models that link the peak effect to vortex phase transitions. We calculate the critical current in self-field in the flux flow regime taking into account intervortex forces. We suppose that most vortices are pinned by defects while mobile vortices move through plastic channels between the strongly pinned vortex regions. When an external field is applied, we suggest that the increase in the critical current that is observed is linked to oscillations of the pinned vortices.en_US
