Abstract

The authors describe the growth and magnetic characteristic of single crystals of Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_y. Small (weight c=87 K). H_cl(T) has been obtained from the deviation of linearity of the M-H curves. Results of ZFC, FC and remanent magnetisations show strong flux trapping and a behaviour for T<20 K indicative of a melting of the vortex lattice.
