Quantized magnetic vortices driven by electric current determine key electromagnetic
properties of superconductors. While the dynamic behavior of slow vortices has been …

The ultra-fast dynamics of superconducting vortices harbors rich physics generic to
nonequilibrium collective systems. The phenomenon of flux-flow instability (FFI), however …

With increasing applied current, we show that the moving vortex lattice changes its structure
from a triangular one to a set of parallel vortex rows in a pinning free superconductor. This …

The photon count rate (PCR) of superconducting single-photon detectors made of Mo x Si 1-
x films shaped as a 2-μ m-wide strip and a 115-nm-wide meander strip line is studied …

Ultrafast vortex motion has recently become a subject of extensive investigations, triggered
by the fundamental question regarding the ultimate speed limits for magnetic flux quanta …

We consider the nonlinear dynamics of a single vortex in a superconductor in a strong rf
magnetic field B 0 sin ω t. Using the London theory, we calculate the dissipated power Q (B …

The transport of electrical current through a superconductor falls into three broad regimes:
non-dissipative, dissipative but superconducting, and normal or non-superconducting …

The fabrication of high-quality thin superconducting films is essential for single-photon
detectors. Their device performance is crucially affected by their material parameters, thus …

A flux instability occurs in superconductors at low temperatures, where ee scattering is more
rapid than e-ph, whereby the dissipation significantly elevates the electronic temperature …

We report numerical simulations of a trapped elastic vortex driven by a strong ac magnetic
field H (t)= H sin ω t parallel to the surface of a superconducting film. The surface resistance …
