Correlation length of quasiperiodic vortex lattices.

چکیده
We investigated vortex-lattice dynamics in superconducting Nb thin films with different quasiperiodic arrays of magnetic pinning centers. The mixed-state magnetoresistance exhibits minima for well-defined applied fields, related to matching effects between the vortex lattice and those arrays. The results show that critical matching can originate at a local scale. For fractal arrays, the vortex-lattice correlation length is longer and the minima are deeper, close to those of periodic arrays.

Quasiperiodic Dynamics in Bose-Einstein Condensates in Periodic Lattices and Superlattices
Authors’ note: We rephrased the abstract. We employ KAM theory to rigorously investigate quasiperiodic dynamics in cigar-shaped Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) in periodic lattices and superlattices. Toward this end, we apply a coherent structure ansatz to the GrossPitaevskii equation to obtain a parametrically forced Duffing equation describing the spatial dynamics of the condensate. For shall...

Using the forced oscillator method (FOM) and the transfer-matrix technique, we numerically investigate the nature of the phonon states and the wave propagation, in the presence of an external force, in the chains composed of Fibonacci lattices of type site, bond and mixing models, as the quasiperiodic systems. Calculating the Lyapunov exponent and the participation ratio, we also study the lo...

We study experimentally the critical depinning current I(c) versus applied magnetic field B in Nb thin films which contain 2D arrays of circular antidots placed on the nodes of quasiperiodic (QP) fivefold Penrose lattices. Close to the transition temperature T(c) we observe matching of the vortex lattice with the QP pinning array, confirming essential features in the I(c)(B) patterns as predict...

– We have investigated the vortex state in a superconducting dice network using the Bitter decoration technique at several magnetic frustrations f = φ/φ0=1/2 and 1/3. In contrast to other regular network geometries where the existence of a commensurate state was previouly demonstrated, no ordered state was observed in the dice network at f = 1/2 and the observed vortex-vortex correlation length...
متن کاملVortex-lattice dynamics in rotating spinor Bose-Einstein condensates.
We observe interlaced square vortex lattices in rotating dilute-gas spinor Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). After preparing a hexagonal vortex lattice in a one-component BEC in an internal atomic state |1, we coherently transfer a fraction of the superfluid to a different state |2. The subsequent evolution of this pseudo-spin-1/2 superfluid towards a state of offset square lattices involves an ...
