Sažetak
A systematic study of electrical resistivity of Hf100-xFex (x = 20, 25), Hf100-xCux(x = 30, 40, 50) and Ti65Cu35 metallic glasses has been done in the temperature range 0.3– 290 K, and in magnetic fields B≤ 5 T. All Hf-base alloys are superconducting with Tc≥ 0.44 K, which is well above the Tc of pure crystalline Hf (0.13 K). From the initial slopes of the upper critical fields, (dHc2/dT)Tc, and resistivities we determined the dressed electronic densities of states, Nγ (EF), for all alloys. Both Tc and Nγ (EF) decrease with increasing x (Fe and Cu content). The results are compared with those for corresponding Zr-base metallic glasses and ion-implanted Hf films.
