Abstract: | We have investigated mode locking resonance of a driven vortex lattice in an amorphous MoGe film by means of rf impedance measurements. This technique allows us to detect directly the lattice motion in response to a rf current superimposed on top of a dc current. At low rf currents the resonance appears as jumps (dips) in real (imaginary) part of rf impedance Z. On increasing rf current, the jump height in the real part of Z at a given resonant condition decreases monotonically, whereas the imaginary part of Z exhibits a transformation from the dip to peak behaviors. Namely, the resonant feature changes from capacitive to inductive responses, on increasing rf current. This behavior implies variations in the phase of rf current relative to that of the lattice velocity modulated by the pinning potential. |
