Direct measurements of transport critical current and resistive state in YBCO single crystal microbridges and thin films have been performed, using pulse technique with microsecond current pulses. We have obtained critical currents values up to 105A/cm2 at 80K in zero field for single crystals and more than 106A/cm2 for thin films. Data on field dependence of ρf are presented and preliminary assumptions on the difference in flux flow mechanism in YBCO single crystals and thin films are made.
