Vortex Dynamics in Type II Superconductors

arXiv:1702.08842

Abstract

Time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation is solved for type II superconductors numerically, and the dynamics of entering vortices, geometric defects and pinning effects have been investigated. A superconducting wire with ratchet defects is designed to pump the vortices move in a specific direction and enhance the supercurrent when applying the periodical magnetic field. Some properties of this wire have been investigated numerically and analytically.
