22. We reported the critical current behaviors following the GL theory (Ref.). Because this theory is applicable only to the 3D regime, this result is consistent with the theory. This indicates that transitions from the TLL to the superconducting phases at TcR (Ref.) may be the 1D-quasi-1D (or 3D) phase transitions.
