Hierarchical structure formation in layered superconducting systems with multi-scale inter-vortex interactions.
We demonstrate the formation of hierarchical structures in two-dimensional systems with multiple length scales in the inter-particle interaction. These include states such as clusters of clusters, concentric rings, clusters inside a ring, and stripes in a cluster. We propose to realize such systems in vortex matter (where a vortex is mapped onto a particle with multi-scale interactions) in laye...
متن کاملVortex matter in mesoscopic superconductors
Superconducting mesoscopic devices in magnetic fields present novel properties which can only be accounted for by both the quantum confinement of the Cooper pairs and by the interaction between the magnetic-field-induced vortices. Sub-micrometer disks, much the same as their semiconductor counterparts known as quantum dots, are being subject to experimental investigation by measuring their cond...
متن کاملNonequilibrium phase transitions of vortex matter in three-dimensional layered superconductors.
Large-scale simulations on the three-dimensional (3D) frustrated anisotropic XY model have been performed to study the nonequilibrium phase transitions of vortex matter in weak random pinning potential in layered superconductors. The first-order phase transition from the moving Bragg glass to the moving smectic is clarified, based on thermodynamic quantities. A washboard noise is observed in th...
متن کاملPhase diagram of vortex matter of type-II superconductors
We propose a model to construct the phase diagram for type-II superconductors through molecular-dynamics simulation. In this model, the Abrikosov vortices interact with long-range repulsion and short-range attraction. We are able to obtain the phase diagrams consisting of the vortex lattice, the intermediate-mixed phase (IMP), and the disordered vortex phase in the B-T , B-κ, and B-q planes, wh...
متن کاملVortex lattice melting in layered superconductors with periodic columnar pins.
The melting of the vortex lattice in highly anisotropic, layered superconductors with commensurate, periodic columnar pins is studied in a geometry where magnetic field and columnar pins are normal to the layers. Thermodynamic properties and equilibrium density distributions are obtained from numerical minimization of an appropriate free-energy functional. We find a line of first-order transiti...
