Observation of vortex coalescence in the anisotropic spin-triplet superconductor Sr2RuO4.
We present direct imaging of magnetic flux structures over the ab face of the anisotropic, spin-triplet superconductor Sr2RuO4 using a scanning microSQUID force microscope. Individual vortices with a single flux quantum were observed at low magnetic fields applied along the out-of-pane direction. At intermediate fields, the direct imaging revealed coalescing of vortices and the formation of flu...
متن کاملObservation of Vortex Coalescence, Vortex Chains and Crossing Vortices in the Anisotropic Spin-Triplet Superconductor Sr2RuO4
Scanning μSQUID force microscopy is used to study magnetic flux structures in single crystals of the layered spin triplet superconductor Sr2RuO4. Images of the magnetic flux configuration above the ~a~b-face of the cleaved crystal are acquired, mostly after field-cooling the sample. For low applied magnetic fields, individual vortices are observed, each carrying a single quantum of flux. Above ...
متن کاملMagnetic fields above the surface of a superconductor with internal magnetism
The author presents a method for calculating the magnetic fields near a planar surface of a superconductor with a given intrinsic magnetization in the London limit. He computes solutions for various magnetic domain boundary configurations and derives relations between the spectral densities of the magnetization and the resulting field in the vacuum half space, which are useful if the magnetizat...
متن کاملHalf quantum vortices and Majorana fermions in triplet superconductors
Half quantum vortices (HQVs) in superfluid He − A have been speculated since 1976. Two years ago, Yamashita et al[1] reported a very unusual NMR satellite in the rotating superfluid He − A in a parallel plate geometry. Recently this satellite has been interpreted in terms of HQVs[2]. Also, the strong flux pinnings in the triplet superconductors UPt3, Sr2RuO4 and U1−xThxBe13 have been discovered...
متن کاملCompetition Between Antiferromagnetism and Ferromagnetism in Sr2RuO4 Probed by Mn and Co Doping
Spin-triplet superconductivity in Sr2RuO4 has attracted enormous interest. Like other unconventional superconductors, superconductivity in Sr2RuO4 is in close proximity to magnetic instability. Undoped Sr2RuO4 exhibits incommensurate antiferromagnetic (AFM) fluctuations, which can evolve into static, short-range AFM order via Ti doping. Moreover, weak ferromagnetic (FM) coupling in Sr2RuO4 has ...
