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…

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…
