Hessian characterization of a vortex in a maze
Roland Willa, Vadim B. Geshkenbein, Gianni Blatter
Recent advances in vortex imaging allow for tracing the position of individual vortices with high resolution. Pushing an isolated vortex through the sample with the help of a contr…
Designing high-performance superconductors with nanoparticle inclusions: comparisons to strong pinning theory
Sarah C. Jones, Masashi Miura, Ryuji Yoshida +4
One of the most promising routes for achieving unprecedentedly high critical currents in superconductors is to incorporate dispersed, non-superconducting nanoparticles to control t…
A topological flux trap: Majorana bound states at screw dislocations
Stefan Rex, Roland Willa
The engineering of non-trivial topology in superconducting heterostructures is a very challenging task. Reducing the number of components in the system would facilitate the creatio…
Perspective: Challenges and Transformative Opportunities in Superconductor Vortex Physics
Serena Eley, Andreas Glatz, Roland Willa
In superconductors, the motion of vortices introduces unwanted dissipation that is disruptive to applications. Fortunately, material defects can immobilize vortices, acting as vort…
