“Superconductor 3D nanoarchitectures”
Thu 13rd March 2025, 12:30, Salón de Grados, Facultad de Ciencias, Campus San Francisco
Summary:
In 3D superconductor nanoarchitectures, enabled by the advanced high-tech fabrication techniques, a topological transition between the vortex- and phase-slip- regime determines the magnetic-field-voltage and current-voltage characteristics revealing a nontrivial topology of SC screening currents. An abrupt switch-on of the transport current triggers the transition from the vortex- to phase-slip-regime in superconductor open nanotubes. Various dynamic topological transitions in them take place under a combined dc+ac transport current. Vortex chains, vortex jets, and phase-slip regimes occur in superconductor open nanotubes due to the inhomogeneity of the normal magnetic field component, leading to microwave generation.
