Resumo
Nesse trabalho estudou-se a dinâmica e os fatores de formação de vórtices cinemáticos em supercondutores mesoscópicos sem gap (gapless). Os resultados foram comparados com aqueles de um sistema com gap (gap-like). Para tal, as simulações computacionais foram direcionadas para a solução das equações generalizadas de Ginzburg-Landau dependente do tempo (GTDGL). Primeiramente simulamos amostras homogêneas onde verificou-se que, no sistema gap-like, as correntes se concentram no centro da amostra, com isso, há formação de vórtices cinemáticos. Para criar artificialmente o acúmulo de correntes no centro da amostra, inserimos uma constrição e assim, obtivemos a formação de vórtices cinemáticos em supercondutores gapless. A dinâmica é sempre com um par se formando nas bordas da amostra e se aniquilando no centro. Nota-se que, além da formação de VAv (início do estado resistivo) ocorrer em valores distintos da densidade de corrente aplicada para as diferentes amostras, a corrente crítica apresenta uma pequena diferença entre as amostras gapless e gap-like. Vale ressaltar que parâmetros como o tamanho dos contatos elétricos e a constrição afetam a corrente crítica da amostra, bem como a velocidade média do vórtice cinemático.
In this work we study the dynamics and the formation of kinematic vortices in gapless mesoscopic superconductors. The results were compared to those ones of a gap-like system. Then computational simulations were carried out to solve the Generalized Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations (GTDGL). Firtly, we simulated homogeneous gap-like and gapless samples where it was found that, in the rst one, the currents concentrate in the center of the sample and then, there was the formation of kinematic vortices. To arti cially promote the crowding of the currents in the center of the sample, we worked with samples a constriction. In this way, kinematic vortices in gapless superconductors were formed. The dynamic is always with a pair forming at the edges of the sample and annihilating in the center. It is noted that, besides the formation of a vortex (antivortex) (begin of resistive state) occurs at distinct values of the applied current density for diferent samples, the electric critical current presents a tiny di erence between gapless and gap-like samples. It is worth mentioning that parameters such as the size of electrical contacts and constriction a ect the critical current of the sample as well as the average velocity of the kinematic vortex.
