Microwave penetration depth $\lambda$ and surface resistance at 27 GHz are measured in high quality crystals of KOs$_2$O$_6$. Firm evidence for fully-gapped superconductivity is provided from...
Uncommonly High Upper Critical Field in the Superconducting KOs$_2$O$_6$ Pyrochlore (2006)
Shibauchi, T., Krusin-Elbaum, L., Kasahara, Y., Shimono, Y., Matsuda, Y., McDonald, R. D., ...
The entire temperature dependence of the upper critical field $H_{\rm c2}$ in the $\beta$-pyrochlore KOs$_2$O$_6$ is obtained from high-field resistivity and magnetic measurements. Both techniques...
