Abstract: | Thermodynamically stable vortex—antivortex structures in a quasi-twodimensional superconductor in a tilted magnetic field
are predicted. For this geometry, both orbital and spin pair-breaking effects exist, with their relative strength depending
on the tilt angle θ. The spectrum of possible states contains the ordinary vortex state (for large θ) and the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov
(FFLO) state (for θ = 0) as limits. The quasi-classical equations are solved nearH
c2 for arbitrary θ and it is shown that stable states with co-existing vortices and antivortices exist in a small interval close
to θ= 0. The results are compared with recent predictions of antivortices in mesoscopic samples. |
