The response of mesoscopic superconductors to an ac magnetic field is investigated both experimentally and with numerical simulations. We study small square samples with dimensions of the order of the penetration depth. We obtain the ac…
In this work we study the ac dissipation of mesoscopic superconductors at microwave frequencies using the time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. Our numerical simulations show that the ac dissipation is strongly dependent on the…
In a type-II superconductor the generation of higher harmonics in the magnetic response to an alternating magnetic field is a consequence of the non-linearity in the I-V relationship. The shape of the current-voltage (I-V) curve is…
We have measured the magnetoresistance of a dc superconducting quantum interference device in the form of an interrupted mesoscopic normal-metal loop in contact with two superconducting electrodes. Below the transition temperature of the…
We present an analysis of the magnetic response of a mesoscopic superconductor, i.e. a system of sizes comparable to the coherence length and to the London penetration depth. Our approach is based on special properties of the two…
We show that for a thin superconducting strip placed in a transverse dc magnetic field - the typical geometry of experiments with high-Tc superconductors - the application of a weak ac magnetic field perpendicular to the dc field generates…
In type-I superconductors, zero electrical resistivity and perfect diamagnetism define two fundamental criteria for superconducting behavior. In contrast, type-II superconductors exhibit more complex mixed state physics, where magnetic flux…
A dc voltage induced by an external ac current is observed in system of asymmetric mesoscopic superconducting loops. The value and sign of this dc voltage, like the one of the persistent current, depend in a periodical way on a magnetic…
Numerical simulations of the hysteretic ac loss in a coated superconductor with a more realistic version of architecture were performed via finite-element technique in the presence of an oscillating magnetic field. The coated superconductor…
We individuated a method to distinguish a glass phase from a highly viscous liquid phase in a lattice of vortices, established in type-two superconductors. Our analysis is based on the study of the temperature dependence of numerically…
There is a renewed interest in superconductors for high-frequency applications, leading to a reconsideration of already known low-$T_c$ and high-$T_c$ materials. In this view, we present an experimental investigation of the millimeter-wave…
Scanning Hall probe and local Hall magnetometry measurements have been used to investigate flux distributions in large mesoscopic superconducting disks with sizes that lie near the crossover between the bulk and mesoscopic vortex regimes.…
The motion of Abrikosov vortices in type-II superconductors results in a finite resistance in the presence of an applied electric current. Elimination or reduction of the resistance via immobilization of vortices is the "holy grail" of…
In this article, we examine the superconducting properties of low- and high-$T_c$ magnetic superconductors in magnetic fields close to the first penetration field. Attention is paid to the properties that relate to the interactions between…
Ta$_{2}$S$_{2}$C compound undergoes superconducting transitions at $T_{cl} = 3.60 \pm 0.02$ K and $T_{cu} = 9.0 \pm 0.2$ K. The nature of successive superconducting transitions has been studied from electrical resistivity, linear and…
We study the influence of thermal fluctuations on the magnetic behavior of square mesoscopic superconductors. The strength of thermal fluctuations are parameterized using the Ginzburg number, which is small ($G_i \approx 10^{-10}$) in…
We have measured periodic oscillations of rectified dc voltage versus magnetic field V_{dc}(B) in a superconducting aluminum thin-film circular-asymmetric figure-of-eight microstructure threaded by a magnetic flux and biased with a…
Measurements of the ac response represent a valuable method for probing the properties of superconductors. In the surface superconducting state (SSS), a current exceeding the surface critical current $I_\mathrm{c}$ leads to breakdown of SSS…
In a superconducting mesoscopic sample, with dimensions comparable to the London penetration depth, some properties are qualitatively different to those found in the bulk material. These properties include magnetization, vortex dynamics and…
We apply the time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations (TDGL) to study small ac currents of frequency $\omega$ in superconducting channels narrow on the scale of London penetration depth. We show that TDGL have $t$-dependent and spatially…
