In realistic situations, a typical scenario for applications of type II superconductors
necessarily includes vortices, usually in the presence of currents. Under these …

We develop a fast numerical procedure for the analysis of nonlinear and nonlocal
electrodynamics of type-II superconducting films in transverse magnetic fields coupled with …

A graded distribution of antidots in superconducting a-Mo 79 Ge 21 thin films has been
investigated by magnetization and magneto-optical imaging measurements. The pinning …

Niobium thin films on silicon substrate used in the fabrication of superconducting qubits
have been characterized using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, electrical …

We study interactions of perpendicular and longitudinal magnetic fields in niobium films of
different thickness in a wide range of temperatures below the superconducting transition …

Magnetic fields perpendicular to superconducting films often trigger vortex avalanches,
which always are very harmful for electronic devices and other applications. Such …

We have established a link between the global ac response and the local flux distribution of
superconducting films by combining magnetic ac susceptibility, dc magnetization, and …

Technological applications of NbN thin films may be threatened by the development of
magnetic flux avalanches of thermomagnetic origin appearing in a large portion of the …

We have observed the occurrence of dendritic flux avalanches in an amorphous film of Mo
84 Si 16. These events are understood to have a thermomagnetic origin and involve the …

The dynamics of the annihilation of a vortex-antivortex pair is investigated. The pair is
activated magnetically during the run of a simulated hysteresis loop on a square mesoscopic …
