Abstract

We show that twin boundaries, a ubiquitous c-axis-correlated (i.e., extending along the c axis throughout the thickness of the sample) crystallographic defect in some high-temperature superconductors, naturally induce a Bose glass vortex phase transition in the magnetic phase diagram of heavily twinned YBa2Cu3O7-δ thick films.
