Abstract: Multiply connected mesoscopic: superconductors are considered within the framework of the nonlinear Ginzburg-Landau theory. The two coupled nonlinear equations are solved numerically and we investigated the properties of a superconducting ring, two concentric rings, and an asymmetric ring. We find that (i) for a mesoscopic superconducting ring the flux through the hole is not quantized, (ii) two concentric mesoscopic superconducting rings are magnetically coupled and the interaction energy increases with increasing sample thickness, and (iii) in asymmetric rings, a stationary phase slip state is predicted.

“Dependence of the vortex configuration on the geometry of mesoscopic flat samples”. Baelus BJ, Peeters FM, Physical review : B : condensed matter and materials physics 65, 104515 (2002). http://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.65.104515
Abstract: The influence of the geometry of a thin superconducting sample on the penetration of the magnetic field lines and the arrangement of vortices are investigated theoretically. We compare the vortex state of superconducting disks, squares, and triangles with the same surface area having nonzero thickness. The coupled nonlinear Ginzburg-Landau equations are solved self-consistently and the important demagnetization effects are taken into account. We calculate and compare quantities such as the free energy, the magnetization, the Cooper-pair density, the magnetic field distribution, and the superconducting current density for the three geometries. For given vorticity the vortex lattice is different for the three geometries, i.e., it tries to adapt to the geometry of the sample. This also influences the stability range of the different vortex states. For certain magnetic field ranges we found a coexistence of a giant vortex placed in the center and single vortices towards the corners of the sample. The H-T phase diagram is obtained for the three investigated geometries and we found that the critical magnetic field is substantially enhanced for the triangle geometry.

“The effect of surface defects on the vortex expulsion and penetration in mesoscopic superconducting disks”. Baelus BJ, Peeters FM, Physica: C : superconductivity
T2 –, 7th International Conference on Materials and Mechanisms of, Superconductive and High Temperature Superconductors, MAY 25-30, 2003, Rio de Janeiro, BRAZIL 408, 543 (2004). http://doi.org/10.1016/j.physc.2004.03.206
Abstract: Within the framework of the nonlinear Ginzburg-Landau theory we investigate how the vortex expulsion and penetration fields are influenced by the presence of surface defects in superconducting disks with zero thickness. We studied different types and sizes of defects. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
