Low Temperature Behavior of the Vortex Lattice in Unconventional Superconductors
arXiv:cond-mat/9712218 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.58.5848
Abstract
We study the effect of the superconducting gap nodes on the vortex lattice properties of high temperature superconductors at very low temperatures. The nonlinear, nonlocal and nonanalytic nature of this effect is shown to have measurable consequences for the vortex lattice geometry and the effective penetration depth in the mixed state as measured by muon-spin-rotation experiments.
