Thermal fluctuations and disorder effects in vortex lattices
نویسندگان
چکیده
We calculate using loop expansion the effect of fluctuations on the structure function and magnetization of the vortex lattice and compare it with existing MC results. In addition to renormalization of the height of the Bragg peaks of the structure function, there appears a characteristic saddle shape ”halos” around the peaks. The effect of disorder on magnetization is also calculated. All the infrared divergencies related to soft shear cancel.

Thermal fluctuations and disorder play an essential role in high-Tc superconductors. After reviewing the mean-field phase diagram we describe significant modifications that result when the effects of finite temperature and disorder are incorporated. Thermal fluctuations cause the melting of the Abrikosov flux line lattice into a vortex liquid at high temperatures, and disorder produces novel gl...
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 lattice transitions in cyclic spinor condensates.
We study the energetics of vortices and vortex lattices produced by rotation in the cyclic phase of F=2 spinor condensates. In addition to the familiar triangular lattice predicted by Tkachenko for 4He, many more complex lattices appear in this system as a result of the spin degree of freedom. In particular, we predict a magnetic-field-driven transition from a triangular lattice to a honeycomb ...
متن کاملStability of the vortex lattice in a rotating superfluid.
We analyze the stability of the vortex lattice in a rotating superfluid against thermal fluctuations associated with the long-wavelength Tkachenko modes of the lattice. Inclusion of only the two-dimensional modes leads formally to instability in infinite lattices; however, when the full three-dimensional spectrum of modes is taken into account, the thermallyinduced lattice displacements are ind...
متن کاملمطالعه مدل هایزنبرگ به روش خودسازگار گاؤسی بر روی شبکههای لانه زنبوری و الماسی
The classical J1-J2 Heisenberg model on bipartite lattice exhibits "Neel" order. However if the AF interactions between the next nearest neighbor(nnn) are increased with respect to the nearest neighbor(nn), the frustration effect arises. In such situations, new phases such as ordered phases with coplanar or spiral ordering and disordered phases such as spin liquids can arise. In this paper we ...
