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…
Mechanics of Individual, Isolated Vortices in a Cuprate Superconductor
Ophir M. Auslaender, Lan Luan, Eric W. J. Straver +7
Superconductors often contain quantized microscopic whirlpools of electrons, called vortices, that can be modeled as one-dimensional elastic objects. Vortices are a diverse playgro…
Multiple Changes of Order of the Vortex Melting Transition in BSCCO with Dilute Columnar Defects
Tal Verdene, Haim Beidenkopf, Yuri Myasoedov +4
A low concentration of columnar defects is reported to transform a first-order vortex lattice melting line in BSCCO crystals into alternating segments of first-order and second-ord…
Angular dependence of the melting of the porous vortex matter in
Nurit Avraham, Y. Y. Goldschmidt, J. T. Liu +6
The behavior of vortex matter in in the presence of a low concentration of tilted columnar defects (CDs) was studied using magneto-optical meas…
Self field of ac current reveals voltage-current law in type-II superconductors
E. H. Brandt, G. P. Mikitik, E. Zeldov
The distribution of ac magnetic fields in a thin superconducting strip is calculated when an ac current is applied to the sample. The edge barrier of the strip to flux penetration…
Equilibrium First-Order Melting and Second-Order Glass Transitions of the Vortex Matter in BiSrCaCuO
H. Beidenkopf, N. Avraham, Y. Myasoedov +5
The thermodynamic phase diagram of BiSrCaCuO was mapped by measuring local \emph{equilibrium} magnetization in presence of vortex `shaking'. Two equa…
