Superconducting vortex loops have so far avoided experimental detection despite being the focus of much theoretical work. We here propose a method of creating controllable vortex loops in the superconducting condensate arising in a normal…
A serious obstacle that impedes the application of low and high temperature superconductor (SC) devices is the presence of trapped flux. Flux lines or vortices are induced by fields as small as the Earth's magnetic field. Once present,…
We study vortex current distributions in narrow thin-film superconducting strips. If one defines the vortex core ``boundary" as a curve where the current reaches the depairing value, intriguing features emerge. Our conclusions based on the…
We measured and compared the electric field vs current density characteristics in the vortex state of two amorphous Nb0.7Ge0.3 microbridges, with and without a line of submicron holes patterned along the sample axis. The power dissipation…
Type-II superconductors exhibit hysteretic behavior due to the presence of quantum vortices, and the order in which temperature and external field are varied plays a decisive role. Here we take current, rather than magnetic field, as the…
The maximum current (critical current) a type-II superconductor can transmit without energy loss is limited by the motion of the quantized magnetic flux penetrating into a superconductor. Introducing nanoscale holes into a superconducting…
We revisit the critical penetration of Pearl vortices in narrow superconducting flat rings cooled in magnetic fields. Scanning superconducting quantum interference device microscopy measurements showed how magnetic field penetrates and…
We explore critical field and critical current behavior in inhomogeneous narrow thin-film superconducting strips. Formulations are developed to calculate free energy, critical field, and critical current for strips with inhomogeneous Pearl…
Vortex pinning is a crucial factor that determines the critical current of practical superconductors and enables their diverse applications. However, the underlying mechanism of vortex pinning has long been elusive, lacking a clear…
In the present work we investigate the behavior of a vortex in a long superconducting cylinder near to a columnar defect at the center. The derivations of the local magnetic field distribution and the Gibbs free energy will be carried out…
\\A simple model for a superconductor with tunable critical current is studied theoretically. The model consists of a thin superconducting film with one vortex interacting with one magnetic dipole, whose magnetic moment is free to rotate,…
Influence of the spin-transfer torque on the vortex state magnetic nanodisk is studied numerically via Slonczewski-Berger mechanism. The existence of a critical current is determined for the case of same-directed electrical current, its…
The interactions between vortices in a thin superconducting film and one magnetic dipole in the presence of a magnetic field applied parallel to the film surfaces are studied theoretically in the London limit. The dipole magnetic moment is…
A current-carrying superconducting strip partly penetrated by magnetic flux and surrounded by a bulk magnet of high permeability is considered. Two types of samples are studied: those with critical current controlled by an edge barrier…
Vortex-antivortex arrays that are created in a type-II superconducting film by lattices of ferromagnetic dots with perpendicular anisotropy have been investigated. The highest critical current is shifted to a nonzero value of the applied…
New results of the investigations critical current problems in the high temperature oxide superconductors are presented, basing on an analysis of the flux pinning on nano-sized centers. New model of the interaction pancake vortices with the…
Hybrid magnetic arrays embedded in superconducting films are ideal systems to study the competition between different physical (such as the coherence length) and structural length scales such as available in artificially produced…
The controlled motion of objects through narrow channels is important in many fields. We have fabricated asymmetric weak-pinning channels in a superconducting thin-film strip for controlling the dynamics of vortices. The lack of pinning…
At the nucleus of a superconducting vortex is a small, circular region where superconductivity is destroyed. Like an atomic nucleus, this core may become deformed, and such distortions can have important consequences in non-equilibrium…
The use of artificial defects is known to enhance the superconducting critical parameters of thin films. In the case of conventional superconductors, regular arrays of submicron holes (antidots) substantially increase the critical…
