Probing dynamics and pinning of single vortices in superconductors at nanometer scales
Lior Embon, Yonathan Anahory, Alexander Suhov +9
The dynamics of quantized magnetic vortices and their pinning by materials defects determine electromagnetic properties of superconductors, particularly their ability to carry non-…
Nanoscale thermal imaging of dissipation in quantum systems
Dorri Halbertal, Jo Cuppens, Moshe Ben Shalom +12
Energy dissipation is a fundamental process governing the dynamics of physical, chemical, and biological systems. It is also one of the main characteristics distinguishing quantum…
Electrically tunable multi-terminal SQUID-on-tip
Aviram Uri, Alexander Y. Meltzer, Yonathan Anahory +8
We present a new nanoscale superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) whose interference pattern can be shifted electrically in-situ. The device consists of a nanoscale fo…
Evidence for a High-Temperature Disorder-Induced Mobility in Solid He
Anna Eyal, Oshri Pelleg, Lior Embon +1
We have carried out torsional oscillator experiments on solid He at temperatures between 1.3K and 1.9K. We discovered phenomena similar to those observed at temperatures below…
A three-junction SQUID-on-tip with tunable in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic field sensitivity
Yonathan Anahory, Jonathan Reiner, Lior Embon +6
Nanoscale superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) demonstrate record sensitivities to small magnetic moments, but are typically sensitive only to the field component…
Emergent nanoscale superparamagnetism at oxide interfaces
Yonathan Anahory, Lior Embon, Chang Jian Li +12
Atomically sharp oxide heterostructures exhibit a range of novel physical phenomena that do not occur in the parent bulk compounds. The most prominent example is the appearance of…
Observation of a gel of quantum vortices in a superconductor at very low magnetic fields
José Benito Llorens, Lior Embon, Alexandre Correa +13
A gel consists of a network of particles or molecules formed for example using the sol-gel process, by which a solution transforms into a porous solid. Particles or molecules in a…
Imaging of super-fast dynamics and flow instabilities of superconducting vortices
Lior Embon, Yonathan Anahory, Željko L. JeliÄ +8
Quantized magnetic vortices driven by electric current determine key electromagnetic properties of superconductors. While the dynamic behavior of slow vortices has been thoroughly…
Scanning nano-SQUID with single electron spin sensitivity
Denis Vasyukov, Yonathan Anahory, Lior Embon +9
One of the critical milestones in the intensive pursuit of quantitative nanoscale magnetic imaging tools is achieving the level of sensitivity required for detecting the field gene…
