Negative magnetoresistance and phase slip process in superconducting nanowires | D. Y. Vodolazov
; | Date: |
9 Jan 2007 | Subject: | Superconductivity; Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect | Abstract: | We argue that the negative magnetoresistance of superconducting nanowires, which was observed in recent experiments, can be explained by the influence of the external magnetic field on the critical current of the phase slip process. We show that the suppression of the order parameter in the bulk superconductors made by an external magnetic field can lead to an enhancement of both the first $I_{c1}$ and the second $I_{c2}$ critical currents of the phase slip process in nanowires. Another mechanism of an enhancement of $I_{c1}$ can come from decreasing the decay length of the charge imbalance $lambda_Q$ at weak magnetic fields because $I_{c1}$ is inversely proportional to $lambda_Q$. The enhancement of the first critical current leads to a larger intrinsic dissipation of the phase slip process. It suppresses the rate of both the thermo-activated and/or quantum fluctuated phase slips and results in decreasing the fluctuated resistance. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0701166 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
