Controlled Manipulation of Individual Vortices in a Superconductor
E. W. J. Straver, J. E. Hoffman, O. M. Auslaender +2
We report controlled local manipulation of single vortices by low temperature magnetic force microscope (MFM) in a thin film of superconducting Nb. We are able to position the vort…

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…
