Vortices in a wedge made of a type-I superconductor

Using the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau approach, we analyze vortex states and vortex dynamics in type-I superconductor films with a thickness gradient in one direction. In the thinnest part of the structures under consideration, the equilibrium states manifest the typical type-II vortex patterns w...
