چکیده
In this paper, we discuss the vortex structure of the superconducting thin films placed in a magnetic field. We show that the global minimizer of the functional modelling the superconducting thin films has a bounded number of vortices when the applied magnetic field hex < Hc1 +K log | log ε| where Hc1 is the lower critical field of the film obtained by Ding and Du in SIAM J. Math. Anal., 2002. The locations of the vortices are also given.

Critical Magnetic Field and Asymptotic Behavior of Superconducting Thin Films
In this paper, we discuss the vortex structure of the superconducting thin films placed in a magnetic field. The discussion is based on a system of simplified Ginzburg–Landau equations. We obtain the estimate for the lower critical magnetic field Hc1 , in the sense that it is the first critical value of hex, the applied field, for which the minimal energy among vortexless configurations is equa...
متن کاملThe Vortex Dynamics of a Ginzburg-landau System under Pinning Effect
We study the vortex dynamical behaviour of a Ginzburg-Landau (G-L) system of related to inhomogeneous superconductors as well as to three-dimensional superconducting thin films having variable thickness. It is proved that the vortices are attracted by impurities or inhomogeities in the superconducting materials. This rigorously verifies the fact predicted recently by a few authors using a metho...
متن کاملA Hierarchy of Models for Superconducting Thin Films
A hierarchy of models for type-II superconducting thin films is presented. Through appropriate asymptotic limits this hierarchy passes from the mesoscopic Ginzburg-Landau model to the London model with isolated vortices as δfunction singularities, to vortex-density models and finally to macroscopic critical-state models. At each stage it is found that a key nondimensional parameter is Λ = λ2/dL...
متن کاملThe 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 کاملNumerical simulations of the quantized vortices on a thin superconducting hollow sphere
In this paper, we investigate the vortex nucleation on a thin superconducting hollow sphere. The problem is studied using a simplified system of Ginzburg–Landau equations. We present numerical algorithms which preserve the discrete gauge invariance for both time dependent and time independent simulations. The spatial discretization is based on a spherical centroidal Voronoi tessellation which o...
