Phase slip phenomena and vortex dynamics in mesoscopic superconductors

Author(s): Mathieu Lu-Dac (Author), Viktor Kabanov (Supervisor)

Year: 2011

Type: Doctoral dissertation

We investigate the dynamics in one-dimensional (1D) and two dimensional (2D) mesoscopic superconductors in an external magnetic field using the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. We analyze the different transitions between metastable states and describe the creation of topological defects that occur as the phase of the Ginzburg-Landau order parameter makes finite …

Phase separation in a 2D charged system

Author(s): Joaquin Gabriel Miranda Mena (Author), Viktor Kabanov (Supervisor), Tomaž Mertelj (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2010

Type: Doctoral dissertation

The main purpose of this thesis is to describe the inhomogeneous phase of a layered system. The phase is the result of the competition between attractive interactions and the long range Coulomb repulsive force (LRCF). In order to achieve this, two different strategies are applied. The first is within the …
