摘要:

物体在狭窄通道中的受控运动在许多领域都很重要。我们在超导薄膜带中制作了非对称弱钉扎通道,用于控制涡旋的动力学。缺乏钉扎允许涡流以由通道壁的形状确定的主导相互作用移动通过通道。我们目前的测量涡流动力学的通道,并比较这些与一组均匀宽度的通道上类似的测量。虽然均匀宽度通道在通过通道的两个方向上都表现出对称响应,但通过不对称通道的涡流运动是完全不同的,在静态去钉扎和动态通量流两者中都具有实质上的不对称性。这种涡旋棘轮效应对磁场和驱动力的幅值有很强的依赖性。

英文摘要:

The controlled motion of objects through narrow channels is important in many fields. We have fabricated asymmetric weak-pinning channels in a superconducting thin-film strip for controlling the dynamics of vortices. The lack of pinning allows the vortices to move through the channels with the dominant interaction determined by the shape of the channel walls. We present measurements of vortex dynamics in the channels and compare these with similar measurements on a set of uniform-width channels. While the uniform-width channels exhibit a symmetric response for both directions through the channel, the vortex motion through the asymmetric channels is quite different, with substantial asymmetries in both the static depinning and dynamic flux flow. This vortex ratchet effect has a rich dependence on magnetic field and driving force amplitude.
