Direct measurement of penetration length in ultrathin and/or mesoscopic superconducting structures
Direct measurement of penetration length in ultrathin and/or mesoscopic superconducting structures
As the dimensions of thin superconducting structures become comparable with or less than the penetration length of magnetic flux into the structures, it becomes increasingly necessary to devise experimental tests of available theoretical models. One approach which we shall describe enables penetration lengths to be derived from the measurement of …
