Abstract

We have fabricated and measured the transport properties of a series of YBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ nanowires ranging from 100 to 200 nm in width. In all samples we observe hysteretic steps in the current-voltage characteristics below the superconducting transition temperature T_c and switching fluctuations in the resistance as the temperature is varied well above T_c. The data may be evidence for the formation of a domain structure such as charge stripes.
