Vortex ratchet induced by controlled edge roughness

Vortex ratchet induced by controlled edge roughness

We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally the generation of rectified mean vortex displacement resulting from a controlled difference between the surface barriers at the opposite borders of a superconducting strip. Our investigation focuses on Al superconducting strips where, in one of the two...
