英文摘要：

We describe a feedback-based dynamic cantilever magnetometry technique capable of achieving high magnetic moment sensitivity with low applied fields. Using this technique, we have observed periodic entry of vortices into mesoscopic Sr2RuO4 rings. The quantized jump in the magnetic moment of the particle produced by individual vortices was measured with a resolution of 7x10^-16 e.m.u. at an applied field of 1 Oe.

Vortex Lattice Melting of a NbSe2 single grain probed by Ultrasensitive Cantilever Magnetometry

Using dynamic cantilever magnetometry, we study the vortex lattice and its corresponding melting transition in a micrometer-size crystallite of superconducting NbSe2. Measurements of the cantilever resonance frequency as a function of magnetic field and temperature respond to the magnetization of the vortex-lattice. The cantilever dissipation depends on thermally activated vortex creep motion, whose pinning energy barrier is found to be in good agreement with transport measurements on bulk samples. This approach reveals the phase diagram of the crystallite, and is applicable to other micro- or…

Superconducting fluctuation in FeSe investigated by precise torque magnetometry

We investigated the superconducting fluctuation in FeSe, which is assumed to be located in the BCS--BEC crossover region, via magnetic torque measurements. In our method, the absolute cantilever displacement is measured by detecting the interference intensity of the Fabry--Perot cavity formed between the cantilever and optical fiber. Our findings are totally different from the results of the previous torque magnetometry using a piezoresistive cantilever; the "giant" fluctuation diamagnetism related to the BCS--BEC crossover does not exist. Instead, a considerably smaller fluctuation signal ori…

Magnetic Determination of $H_{c2}$ under Accurate Alignment in (TMTSF)$_2$ClO$_4$

Cantilever magnetometry has been used to measure the upper critical magnetic field $H_{c2}$ of the quasi-one dimensional molecular organic superconductor (TMTSF)$_2$ClO$_4$. From simultaneous resistivity and torque magnetization experiments conducted under precise field alignment, $H_{c2}$ at low temperature is shown to reach 5T, nearly twice the Pauli paramagnetic limit imposed on spin singlet superconductors. These results constitute the first thermodynamic evidence for a large $H_{c2}$ in this system and provide support for spin triplet pairing in this unconventional superconductor

Observation of half-height magnetization steps in Sr2RuO4

Spin-triplet superfluids can support exotic objects, such as half-quantum vortices characterized by the nontrivial winding of the spin structure. We present cantilever magnetometry measurements performed on mesoscopic samples of Sr2RuO4, a spin-triplet superconductor. For micron-sized annular-shaped samples, we observe transitions between integer fluxoid states, as well as a regime characterized by "half-integer transitions," i.e., steps in the magnetization with half the height of the ones we observe between integer fluxoid states. These half-height steps are consistent with the existence of …

Comment on "Quantum oscillations in nanofabricated rings of spin-triplet superconductor Sr2RuO4"

Recently Jang et al. reported the observation of half-height magnetization steps in cantilever magnetometry measurements of mesoscopic annular Sr2RuO4 particles. Such magnetization features were interpreted as the presence of half-quantum vortices. In an attempt to examine our findings, very recently Cai et al. (1202.3146) have performed magnetotransport measurements of micron-size rings fabricated from small Sr2RuO4 crystals. While fabrication of such samples and subsequent verification of our findings is highly desirable, we would like to point out that, at the current state of affairs, the …

Effect of half-quantum vortices on magnetoresistance of perforated superconducting films

Recent cantilever magnetometry measurements of annular micron-size samples of Sr2RuO4 have revealed evidence for the existence of half-quantum vortices (HQVs) in this material [Jang et al. 2011]. We propose to look for HQVs in transport measurements and calculate magnetoresistance of a perforated superconducting film close to the transition temperature in the presence of HQVs. We analyze the dependence of magnetoresistance on the thermodynamic stability of HQVs which according to [Jang et al. 2011] can be varied by the application of an in-plane magnetic field and point out features which may …
