Abstract

The high temperature superconducting cuprates are layered materials in which the CuO2 layers are found to play an important role for the superconducting properties. When produced in thin film form, these materials can be grown in a layer by layer sequence and this has allowed us to make superlattices of various combinations of these compounds. In particular, in the YBa2Cu3O7/PrBa2Cu3O7 system it is possible to produce superlattices where the individual layers are as thin as one c-axis unit cell. This allows us to modify the anisotropy of these materials in a controlled manner. In this contribution we present a study of the resistive transition in a magnetic field perpendicular or parallel to the layers, and how the results can be used to gain insight into the role of the anisotropy for the dissipative behaviour of these high temperature superconductors.
