Abstract
Vortex dynamics are key to the superconducting transition at low temperatures and high fields that outlines the zero resistance state. The onset of this transition is a function of temperature, magnetic field, chemical doping, applied current, as well as being dependant on sample quality. This talk will look into the contribution from these various factors in an attempt to understand the underlying behaviour of this fragile superconducting state.
Series This talk is part of the Quantum Matter Seminar series.
