Interstitial vortex in superconducting film with periodic hole arrays

The response of superconducting Nb films with a diluted triangular and square array of holes to a perpendicular magnetic field are investigated.Due to small edge-to-edge separation of the holes,the patterned films are similar to multi-connected superconducting islands.Two regions in the magnetoresistance R(H) curves can be identified according to the field intervals of the resistance minima.Moreover,in between these two regions,variation of the minima spacing was observed.Our results provide strong evidence of the coexistence of interstitial vortices in the islands and fluxoids in the holes.

Correlation between Electroresistance and Magnetoresistance in Slight Oxygen-Deficient Nd0.67Sr0.33MnO3-δ Polycrystalline Ceramics

A colossal electroresistance effect is found in Nd0.67Sr0.33MnO3-δ polycrystalline ceramics with a very slight oxygen deficiency ~ ~ 0.05. The electroresistance behaviour of Nd0.67Sr0.33MnO3-δ（δ= 0.05） displays the striking similarity to its counterpart magnetoresisnce. It reveals that the boundary effect plays an important role in electroresistance and the same physical origin is likely responsible for both magnetoresistance and electroresistance effects in Nd0.67Sr0.33MnO3-δ polycrystals.     

Role of defects in magnetic properties of Fe-doped SnO2 films fabricated by the Sol--Gel method

This paper obtains the room temperature ferromagnetism in Sn1 xFexO2 films fabricated by the Sol-Gel method.X-ray diffraction results show that Fe doping inhibits the growth of SnO2 and Fe3+ ions occupy the Sn sites.The measurement of resistance excludes the free carrier inducing ferromagnetism.Moreover,the temperature dependence of magnetization has been better fitted by the Curie-Weiss law and bound magnetic polaron(BMP) theory.An enhancement of ferromagnetism is achieved by annealing the samples with x = 7.1% in H2,and a decrease of oxygen flow rate.All these results prove that the BMP model depending on defects can explain ferromagnetism in diluted magnetic oxides.     

Abnormal magnetoresistance behavior in Nb thin film with rectangular arrays of antidots

Magnetoresistance in superconducting Nb films perforated with rectangular arrays of antidots (holes) is investigated at various temperatures and currents. Normally, the magnetoresistance increases with the increasing magnetic field. In this paper, we report a reverse behavior in a certain range of high fields after vortex reconfiguration transition, where the resistances at non-matching fields are smaller than those in the low field regime. This phenomenon is due to a strong caging effect, in which the interstitial vortices are trapped among the pinned multiquanta vortices. This effect is temperature and current dependent.
