Vortex-glass transition in superconducting Nb/Cu superlattices
arXiv:cond-mat/0409665 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.71.144522
Abstract
Nb/Cu superconducting superlattices have been fabricated by dc magnetron sputtering. This system shows a vortex glass transition with critical exponents similar to high temperatures superconductors exponents. The transition dymensionality is governed by the superconducting coupling regime. The vortex glass transition shows a pure two dimensional behavior in decoupled superlattices and a quasi-two dimensional behavior in the superlattice coupling regime.
