Current driven transition from Abrikosov-Josephson to Josephson-like vortex in mesoscopic lateral S/S’/S superconducting weak links
Vortices are topological defects accounting for many important effects in superconductivity, superfluidity, and magnetism. Here we address the stability of a small number of such excitations driven by strong external forces. We focus on Abrikosov-Josephson vortex that appears in lateral superconducting S/S'/S weak links with suppressed superconductivity in S'. In such a system the vortex is nuc...
متن کاملSuperfluid 3 He Josephson weak links
Josephson weak links between samples of macroscopic quantum systems such as superconductors, superfluids, and Bose-Einstein condensates provide a unique tool with which to explore quantum mechanics and an opportunity to create applications based on macroscopic quantum physics. In this review we describe the development of the field of weak links in superfluid 3 He. We review the basic technique...
متن کاملTransition from slow Abrikosov to fast moving Josephson vortices in iron pnictide superconductors.
Iron pnictides are layered high T(c) superconductors with moderate material anisotropy and thus Abrikosov vortices are expected in the mixed state. Yet, we have discovered a distinct change in the nature of the vortices from Abrikosov-like to Josephson-like in the pnictide superconductor SmFeAs(O,F) with T(c)~48-50 K on cooling below a temperature T*~41-42 K, despite its moderate electronic ani...
متن کاملAntiferromagnetic THz-frequency Josephson-like Oscillator Driven by Spin Current
The development of compact and tunable room temperature sources of coherent THz-frequency signals would open a way for numerous new applications. The existing approaches to THz-frequency generation based on superconductor Josephson junctions (JJ), free electron lasers, and quantum cascades require cryogenic temperatures or/and complex setups, preventing the miniaturization and wide use of these...
متن کاملMesoscopic Josephson Effect
In the classical Josephson effect the phase difference across the junction is well defined, and the supercurrent is reduced only weakly by phase diffusion. For mesoscopic junctions with small capacitance the phase undergoes large quantum fluctuations, and the current is also decreased by Coulomb blockade effects. We discuss the behavior of the current-voltage characteristics in a large range of...
