Spin-like susceptibility of metallic and insulating thin films at low temperature
Hendrik Bluhm, Julie A. Bert, Nicholas C. Koshnick +2
Susceptibility measurements of patterned thin films at sub-K temperatures were carried out using a scanning SQUID microscope that can resolve signals corresponding to a few hundred…
Mott insulator phases and first-order melting in BSCCO crystals with periodic surface holes
S. Goldberg, Y. Segev, Y. Myasoedov +7
We measured the effects of periodic surface holes, created using a focused ion beam, on the phase diagram of the vortex matter in high-T_c Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+δ} crystals. Different…
A Terraced Scanning Superconducting Quantum Interference Device Susceptometer with Sub-Micron Pickup Loops
Nicholas C. Koshnick, Martin E. Huber, Julie A. Bert +4
Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) can have excellent spin sensitivity depending on their magnetic flux noise, pick-up loop diameter, and distance from the sampl…
Fluctuation Superconductivity in Mesoscopic Aluminum Rings
Nicholas C. Koshnick, Hendrik Bluhm, Martin E. Huber +1
Fluctuations are important near phase transitions, where they can be difficult to describe quantitatively. Superconductivity in mesoscopic rings is particularly intriguing because…
