Enhanced vortex pinning by a composite antidot lattice in a superconducting Pb film
A. V. Silhanek, L. Van Look, R. Jonckheere +3
The use of artificial defects is known to enhance the superconducting critical parameters of thin films. In the case of conventional superconductors, regular arrays of submicron ho…
Anisotropic Caging of Interstitial Vortices in Superconductors with a Square Array of Rectangular Antidots
L. Van Look, S. Raedts, R. Jonckheere +1
We investigate anisotropy in the vortex pinning in thin superconducting films with a square array of rectangular submicron holes ("antidots"). The size of the antidots is chosen in…
Anisotropic vortex pinning in superconductors with a square array of rectangular submicron holes
L. Van Look, B. Y. Zhu, R. Jonckheere +3
We investigate vortex pinning in thin superconducting films with a square array of rectangular submicron holes ("antidots"). Two types of antidots are considered: antidots fully pe…
Guided vortex motion in superconductors with a square antidot lattice
A. V. Silhanek, L. Van Look, S. Raedts +2
We have measured the in-plane anisotropy of the vortex mobility in a thin Pb film with a square array of antidots. The Lorentz force, acting on the vortices, was rotated by adding…
Nanostructured superconductor/ferromagnet bilayers
M. Lange, M. J. Van Bael, L. Van Look +3
The pinning properties of type-II superconductors can be efficiently controlled by using laterally nanostructured ferromagnet / superconductor bilayers. This will be illustrated by…
