Abstract

The behavior of vortex system in the presence of columnar defects in La1.85Sr0.15CuO4 single crystal is studied by AC susceptibility measurements. It is found that the imaginary part χ of the susceptibility as a function of temperature has a single peak, consistent with the Bose-glass theory, forB<B cr∼0.5T. While forB>B cr, χ exhibits double peaks, indicating the liquid-glass transition proceeds via two steps. The origin of the successive transitions is discussed.
