Pinning, Flux Diodes, and Ratchets for Vortices Interacting with Conformal Pinning Arrays
C. J. Olson Reichhardt, Y. L. Wang, Z. L. Xiao +4
A conformal pinning array can be created by conformally transforming a uniform triangular pinning lattice to produces a new structure in which the six-fold ordering of the original…
Enhancing superconducting critical current by randomness
Y. L. Wang, L. R. Thoutam, Z. L. Xiao +6
The key ingredient of high critical currents in a type-II superconductor is defect sites that 'pin' vortices. Contrary to earlier understanding on nano-patterned artificial pinning…
Temperature dependent three-dimensional anisotropy of the magnetoresistance in WTe
L. R. Thoutam, Y. L. Wang, Z. L. Xiao +5
Extremely large magnetoresistance (XMR) was recently discovered in WTe, triggering extensive research on this material regarding the XMR origin. Since WTe is a layered comp…
Realization of Artificial Ice Systems for Magnetic Vortices in a Superconducting MoGe Thin-film with Patterned Nanostructures
M. L. Latimer, G. R. Berdiyorov, Z. L. Xiao +2
We report an anomalous matching effect in MoGe thin films containing pairs of circular holes arranged in such a way that four of those pairs meet at each vertex point of a square l…
Catalyst-Free Growth of Millimeter-Long Topological Insulator Bi2Se3 Nanoribbons and the Observation of pi Berry Phase
L. Fang, Y. Jia, D. J. Miller +5
We report the growth of single-crystalline Bi2Se3 nanoribbons with lengths up to several millimeters via a catalyst-free physical vapor deposition method. Scanning transmission ele…
Large Magnetoresistance Oscillations in Mesoscopic Superconductors Due to Current-Excited Moving Vortices
G. R. Berdiyorov, M. V. Milošević, M. L. Latimer +3
We show in the case of a superconducting Nb ladder that a mesoscopic superconductor typically exhibits magnetoresistance oscillations whose amplitude and temperature dependence are…
