Abstract

A spatially inhomogeneous state in HTSC Ba1-x KxBiO3 single crystals (T c ≈ 30 K, x = 0.4) has been studied at T < Ť ≈ 17 K, where Ť is the temperature of separation into superconducting and dielectric phases. This separation has earlier been detected in Ba1-x KxBiO3 polycrystals. In the single crystals, the main results are obtained from hysteretic magnetization reversal curves, whereas the character of separation in the polycrystals is clearly visible from I–V curves. The results obtained support the theoretical model of HTSC separation proposed in [1].
