Title Formation of vortex shells in mesoscopic superconducting squares Type A1 Journal article
Year (down) 2009 Publication Superconductor science and technology Abbreviated Journal Supercond Sci Tech
Volume 22 Issue 3 Pages 034001,1-034001,8
Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
Abstract We study vortex configurations in mesoscopic superconducting squares. Our theoretical approach is based on the analytical solution of the London equation using the Green's function method. The potential energy landscape found is then used in Langevin-type molecular-dynamics simulations to obtain stable vortex configurations. We show that the filling rules for vortices in squares with increasing applied magnetic field can be formulated, although in a different manner than in disks, in terms of the formation of vortex 'shells'. We discuss metastable states and the stability of the vortex configurations found with respect to variations of the material parameters and deformations of the shape of the sample.

Title Vortex states in mesoscopic superconducting squares: formation of vortex shells Type A1 Journal article
Year (down) 2008 Publication Physical review : B : condensed matter and materials physics Abbreviated Journal Phys Rev B
Volume 78 Issue 10 Pages 104517
Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
Abstract We analyze theoretically and experimentally vortex configurations in mesoscopic superconducting squares. Our theoretical approach is based on the analytical solution of the London equation using Green's-function method. The potential-energy landscape found for each vortex configuration is then used in Langevin-type molecular-dynamics simulations to obtain stable vortex configurations. Metastable states and transitions between them and the ground state are analyzed. We present our results of the first direct visualization of vortex patterns in micrometer-sized Nb squares, using the Bitter decoration technique. We show that the filling rules for vortices in squares with increasing applied magnetic field can be formulated, although in a different manner than in disks, in terms of formation of vortex “shells”.

Title Vortex configurations in mesoscopic superconducting triangles: finite-size and shape effects Type A1 Journal article
Year (down) 2008 Publication Europhysics letters Abbreviated Journal Epl-Europhys Lett
Volume 83 Issue 1 Pages 17008,1-17008,6
Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
Abstract Triangular-shaped mesoscopic superconductors are consistent with the symmetry of the Abrikosov vortex lattice resulting in a high stability of vortex patterns for commensurate vorticities. However, for non-commensurate vorticities, vortex configurations in triangles are not compatible with the sample shape. Here we present the first direct observation of vortex configurations in ìm-sized niobium triangles using the Bitter decoration technique, and we analyze the vortex states in triangles by analytically solving the London equations and performing molecular-dynamics simulations. We found that filling rules with increasing vorticity can be formulated for triangles in a similar way as for mesoscopic disks where vortices form shells.
