Direct observation of the flux-line vortex glass phase in a type II superconductor.
The order of the vortex state in La1.9Sr0.1CuO4 is probed using muon-spin rotation and small-angle neutron scattering. A transition from a Bragg glass to a vortex glass is observed, where the latter is composed of disordered vortex lines. In the vicinity of the transition the microscopic behavior reflects a delicate interplay of thermally induced and pinning-induced disorder.
متن کاملElectromagnetic response of a static vortex line in a type-II superconductor: A microscopic study.
The electromagnetic response of a pinned Abrikosov fluxoid is examined in the framework of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism. The matrix elements and the selection rules for both the single photon (emission absorption) and two photon (Raman scattering) processes are obtained. The results reveal striking asymmetries: light absorption by quasiparticle pair creation or single quasiparticle scatte...
متن کاملVortex - glass phases in type - II superconductors ∗
A review is given on the theory of vortex-glass phases in impure type-II superconductors in an external field. We begin with a brief discussion of the effects of thermal fluctuations on the spontaneously broken U (1) and translation symmetries, on the global phase diagram and on the critical behaviour. Introducing disorder we restrict ourselves to the experimentally most relevant case of weak u...
متن کاملVortex Glass Transition in High Tc Superconductor
Zhenhua Ning Department of Physics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801, USA (Dated: December 13, 2006) Abstract This paper tries to give a clear description of the motion of vortex and the vortex glass transitions in high Tc superconductors from both theoretical analysis and experimental observation. Then a controversy of the location of the vortex glass transition in ...
متن کاملGinzburg-landau Theory of Vortex Phase Diagram in Layered Type Ii Superconductor
Various macroscopic phenomena seen in high temperature superconductors (HTSC) under nonzero magnetic fields have inspired much interest in studying the phase diagram of vortex states of three dimensional (3D) layered type II superconductors. Experimentally, thermodynamic and transport phenomena have been intensively examined mainly in YBCO [1-3] and BSCCO [4]. The resistive broadening [5] in th...
