Vortex chain size effect and negative resistance in pin-free superconducting films

Vortex chain size effect and negative resistance in pin-free superconducting films We investigate the static and dynamic behavior of vortices in a pin-free superconductor. A diffraction pattern is observed in the critical currentJ cvs. applied fieldH ∥parallel to the surface of a granular Al film. When one vortex chain is formed in the film,J cbecomes nearly equal to zero, which verifies that the sample is actually pin-free. An interaction between a radiofrequency current and moving vortices occurs, and theI–V curve shows peculiar nonlinear effects such as “real negative resistance.” The results are analogous to dc and ac Josephson effects. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Low Temperature Physics Springer Journals

Abstract

We investigate the static and dynamic behavior of vortices in a pin-free superconductor. A diffraction pattern is observed in the critical currentJ cvs. applied fieldH ∥parallel to the surface of a granular Al film. When one vortex chain is formed in the film,J cbecomes nearly equal to zero, which verifies that the sample is actually pin-free. An interaction between a radiofrequency current and moving vortices occurs, and theI–V curve shows peculiar nonlinear effects such as “real negative resistance.” The results are analogous to dc and ac Josephson effects.
