The Global Minimizers and Vortex Solutions to a Ginzburg-landau Model of Superconducting Films
In this paper, we discuss the global minimizers of a free energy for the superconducting thin films placed in a magnetic field hex below the lower critical field Hc1 or between Hc1 and the upper critical field Hc2 . For hex is near but smaller than Hc1 , we prove that the global minimizer having no vortex is unique. For Hc1 << hex << Hc2 , we prove that the density of the vortices of the global...
متن کاملExact solutions of the 2D Ginzburg-Landau equation by the first integral method
The first integral method is an efficient method for obtaining exact solutions of some nonlinear partial differential equations. This method can be applied to non integrable equations as well as to integrable ones. In this paper, the first integral method is used to construct exact solutions of the 2D Ginzburg-Landau equation.
متن کاملFrom the Ginzburg-Landau Model to Vortex Lattice Problems
We introduce a “Coulombian renormalized energy” W which is a logarithmic type of interaction between points in the plane, computed by a “renormalization.” We prove various of its properties, such as the existence of minimizers, and show in particular, using results from number theory, that among lattice configurations the triangular lattice is the unique minimizer. Its minimization in general r...
متن کاملOn the Energy of Superconductors in Large and Small Domains
We study the Ginzburg-Landau energy functional for superconductors in an applied magnetic field. We focus on asymptotically large or small domains and establish the asymptotic behavior of the energy as a function of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter, applied magnetic field and domain size. For a large class of domain sizes, we calculate the critical field strength where vortex nucleation becomes en...
متن کاملSharp-Interface Limit of a Ginzburg-Landau Functional with a Random External Field
We add a random bulk term, modeling the interaction with the impurities of the medium, to a standard functional in the gradient theory of phase transitions consisting of a gradient term with a double-well potential. For the resulting functional we study the asymptotic properties of minimizers and minimal energy under a rescaling in space, i.e., on the macroscopic scale. By bounding the energy f...
