27 Summary Addition of nanoscale APCs of different dimensionality in YBCO films: systematic study is proposed 1D-APCs (BaSnO 3 nanorods) Anisotropic behaviour (c-axis correlated pinning). Easy control of nanorods density and spacing. F p MAX = 28.3 GN/m 3 at 3T, 77K in 4wt% BSO-added YBCO 3D-APCs (Y 2 O 3 nanoparticles) Isotropic pinning but lower J c, F p respect to 1D-APCs and segmented nanorods. Difficult control of nanoparticles density and spacing. F p MAX = 14.3 GN/m 3 at 3T, 77K for YBCO A% Y 2 O 3 According to single vortex dynamics model, Y 2 O A% nanoparticles generate 8.0% effective pinning along the vortex core length Multilayered1D-APCs+3D-APCs Simultaneous c-axis and random pinning in YBCO+ 4wt% BaSnO 3 / YBCO+ 2.5 A% Y 2 O 3 multilayers. F p MAX = 17.6 GN/m 3 at 2.2T, 77K in 90 nm YBCO+BaSnO 3 / 30 nm YBCO+Y 2 O 3 According to scaling law, the global pinning behavior of the samples is a direct manifestation of the presence of different pinning centers in their structure Highest maximum field B* corresponds to the coexistence of 1D + 3D pinning 27
