Title: Trapped flux in a small crystal of CaKFe4As4 at ambient pressure and in a diamond anvil pressure cell

Journal Article · · Superconductor Science and Technology

In an extension of our previous work, the measurements of temperature dependent magnetization associated with trapped magnetic flux in a small single crystal of CaKFe4As4, using zero - field - cooled and field - cooled protocols were performed, on the same crystal, at ambient pressure without a pressure cell and at 2.2 GPa in a commercial diamond anvil cell (DAC), showing comparable results. The data show that with a proper care and understanding, trapped flux measurements in superconductors indeed can be performed on samples in DACs under pressure, as was done on superhydrides.
