In a liquid of superconducting vortices, a longitudinal thermal gradient generates a transverse electric field. This Nernst signal peaks at an intermediate temperature and magnetic field, presumably where the entropy difference between the…
Traditionally the Nernst and Ettingshausen effects in the vortex liquid are described in terms of the "transport entropy" of vortices, S_d. According to current theories, the main contribution to S_d is originated from the electromagnetic…
Following the observation of an anomalous Nernst signal in cuprates, the Nernst effect was explored in a variety of metals and superconductors during the past few years. This paper reviews the results obtained during this exploration,…
A quantitative vortex-fluid model for flux-flow resistivity $\rho$ and Nernst signal $e_N$ in high-temperature superconductors (HTSC) is proposed. Two kinds of vortices, magnetic and thermal, are considered, and the damping viscosity $\eta$…
Vortices in superconductors can help identify emergent phenomena but certain fundamental aspects of vortices, such as their entropy, remain poorly understood. Here, we study the vortex entropy in underdoped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+x}$ by…
We calculate the Nernst effect in the vortex fluid phase, which occurs in the lower-T portion of the pseudogap region of the high Tc cuprate phase diagram. The dynamics is dominated by the flows due to both thermally excited vortices and…
The properties of a vortex in a rotating superfluid Fermi gas are studied in the unitary limit. A phenomenological approach based on Ginzburg-Landau theory is developed for this purpose. The density profiles, including those of the normal…
The electric charge density in the vortex lattice of superconductors is studied within the Ginzburg-Landau theory. We show that the electrostatic potential $\phi$ is proportional to the GL function, $\phi\propto|\psi|^2-|\psi_\infty|^2$.…
Vortices in electron fluids are a key indicator of electron hydrodynamics. However, a comprehensive framework linking macroscopic vorticity measurements with microscopic interactions and scattering mechanisms has been lacking. We employ…
We show that in the linear response approximation only entropy provides coupling between thermal and electric phenomena. The dissipationless quantum currents -- magnetization, superconducting, persistent and topological edge currents -- do…
We present a study of Nernst effect in underdoped $La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4$ in magnetic fields as high as 28T. At high fields, a sizeable Nernst signal was found to persist in presence of a field-induced non-metallic resistivity. By…
In amorphous superconducting thin films of $Nb_{0.15}Si_{0.85}$ and $InO_x$, a finite Nernst coefficient can be detected in a wide range of temperature and magnetic field. Due to the negligible contribution of normal quasi-particles,…
A liquid of superconducting vortices generates a transverse thermoelectric response. This Nernst signal has a tail deep in the normal state due to superconducting fluctuations. Here, we present a study of the Nernst effect in…
We present a general hydrodynamic theory of transport in the vicinity of superfluid-insulator transitions in two spatial dimensions described by "Lorentz"-invariant quantum critical points. We allow for a weak impurity scattering rate, a…
We show that the entropy per quantum vortex per layer in superconductors in external magnetic fields is bounded by the universal value k_B ln 2, which explains puzzling results of recent experiments on the Nernst effect.
We consider the Nernst effect in the normal state of the underdoped cuprate superconductors, where recent quantum oscillation experiments have indicated the existence of Fermi surface pockets and quasiparticle ambipolarity in the excitation…
The Nernst effect is known to be a sensitive probe of the scattering mechanisms. Large Nernst effects, a decade ago a topic mainly in vortex dynamics in superconductors, have recently attracted interest in correlated systems like cuprate…
We study some functionals that describe the density of vortex lines in superconductors subject to an applied magnetic field, and in Bose-Einstein condensates subject to rotational forcing, in quite general domains in 3 dimensions. These…
We present a new method to study the Nernst effect and diamagetism of an extreme type-II superconductor dominated by phase fluctuations. We work directly with vortex variables and our method allows us to tune vortex parameters (e.g., core…
By using thermal and Lorentz force, the vortex motion is successfully manipulated in the mixed state of underdoped La$_{2 - x}$Sr$_{x}$CuO$_{4}$ single crystals and optimally doped YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7 - \delta}$ thin films. A conclusion…
