“Effect of normal current corrections on the vortex dynamics in type-II superconductors”. Lipavsky P, Elmurodov A, Lin P-J, Matlock P, Berdiyorov GR, Physical review : B : condensed matter and materials physics 86, 144516 (2012). http://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.86.144516
Abstract: Within the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory we discuss the effect of nonmagnetic interactions between the normal current and supercurrent in the presence of electric and magnetic fields. The correction due to the current-current interactions is shown to have a transient character so that it contributes only when a system evolves. Numerical studies for thin current-carrying superconducting strips with no magnetic feedback show that the effect of the normal current corrections is more pronounced in the resistive state where fast-moving kinematic vortices are formed. Simulations also reveal that the largest contribution due to current-current interactions appears near the sample edges, where the vortices reach their maximal velocity.

“Phase-slip phenomena in NbN superconducting nanowires with leads”. Elmurodov AK, Peeters FM, Vodolazov DY, Michotte S, Adam S, de Menten de Horne F, Piraux L, Lucot D, Mailly D, Physical review : B : solid state 78, 214519 (2008). http://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.78.214519
Abstract: Transport properties of a superconducting NbN nanowire are studied experimentally and theoretically. Different attached leads (superconducting contacts) allowed us to measure current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of different segments of the wire independently. The experimental results show that with increasing the length of the segment the number of jumps in the I-V curve increases indicating an increasing number of phase-slip phenomena. The system shows a clear hysteresis in the direction of the current sweep, the size of which depends on the length of the superconducting segment. The interpretation of the experimental results is supported by theoretical simulations that are based on the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory, the heat equation has been included in the Ginzbur-Landau theory.

“Finite-size effect on the resistive state in a mesoscopic type-II superconducting stripe”. Berdiyorov GR, Elmurodov AK, Peeters FM, Vodolazov DY, Physical review : B : solid state 79, 174506 (2009). http://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.79.174506
Abstract: Within the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) theory we studied the creation of phase-slip lines and the interplay with a vortex lattice in a finite-length superconducting thin stripe with finite-size normal metal leads. In zero magnetic field and with increasing transport current phase-slip lines appear across the sample leading to distinct jumps in the current-voltage characteristics. When a magnetic field is applied, the moving vortex lattice becomes rearranged by the external current and fast and slow moving vortex channels are formed. Curved vortex channels are observed near the normal contacts. We found the remarkable result that at small applied magnetic field the normal-state transition current is increased as compared to the one at zero magnetic field. This effect is more pronounced for larger values of the parameter in the TDGL formalism. This unusual field-induced increase in the critical current is a consequence of the nonuniform distribution of the current in the sample.
