Real-Space Vortex Glass Imaging and the Vortex Phase Diagram of

AP Petrović, Y Fasano, R Lortz, C Senatore, A Demuer… - Physical review …, 2009 - APS
Using scanning tunneling microscopy at 400 mK, we have obtained maps of around 100
vortices in SnMo 6 S 8 from 2–9 T. The orientational and positional disorder at 5 and 9 T …

Irreversible flow of vortex matter: Polycrystal and amorphous phases

P Moretti, MC Miguel - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2009 - APS
We investigate the microscopic mechanisms giving rise to plastic depinning and irreversible
flow in vortex matter. The topology of the vortex array crucially determines the flow response …

Structure of the flux lines lattice in : Equilibrium state and influence of the magnetic history

A Pautrat, M Aburas, C Simon, P Mathieu, A Brûlet… - Physical Review B …, 2009 - APS
We have performed small-angle neutron scattering of the flux line lattice (FLL) in a Fe-doped
NbSe 2 sample which presents a large peak effect in the critical current. The scattered …

Collapse of the Peak Effect due to ac-Induced Flux Creep in an Isotropic Vortex System <?format ?>of Single Crystals

DJ Jang, HS Lee, HG Lee, MH Cho, SI Lee - Physical review letters, 2009 - APS
In an isotropic vortex system of MgCNi 3 single crystal, we first observed the collapse of the
peak effect (PE), which is a sudden increase in the critical current (I c) near the end of …

[PDF][PDF] Unconventional superconductivity and strong electronic correlations in molybdenum cluster compounds

A Petrović - 2009 - Citeseer
Ternary compounds based on molybdenum chalcogenide clusters Mo6X8 display a wide
variety of physical properties, depending on both their composition and crystal structure …

The crossovers of the resistance behaviors in the top and bottom surface layers of 2H-NbSe2

S Yue, S Tan, Y Zhang - Journal of alloys and compounds, 2009 - Elsevier
The critical currents and the resistances in the top and the bottom surface layers have been
studied in 2H-NbSe2single crystal using the flux transformer geometry. In the peak effect …

Depinning and critical-current characteristics of topologically defected vortex lattices

P Moretti, MC Miguel - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2009 - APS
We discuss the role of dislocation assemblies such as grain boundaries in the dynamic
response of a driven vortex lattice. We simulate the depinning of a field-cooled vortex …
