Title: | Moving vortices interacting with periodic pinning |
Issue Date: | 1-Jun-2013 |
Publisher: | Sociedade Brasileira de Física |
Description: | Recent results obtained by the author for the dynamical phase diagrams for vortices in clean films, driven by an uniform force, and interacting with periodic pinning resulting from a columnar defect lattice are discussed. Using numerical simulations of a simple model and other considerations, the dynamical phase diagrams are obtained as a function of the driving force magnitude and direction, the temperature, and the vortex density. The following dynamical phases and dynamical phase transitions are found. Moving vortex lattices at low temperatures, with spatial order that can be commensurate or incommensurate with the periodic pinning, moving vortex liquids and moving smectics. Dynamical melting of moving vortex lattices into moving vortex liquids takes place and transverse pinning of moving commensurate vortex lattices and smectics occurs. It is found that the dynamical phase diagrams in the theoretical limit of infinite driving force magnitudes play a central role in determining the whole dynamical phase diagram: each dynamical phase originates from an infinite-drive limit phase with the same spatial symmetry that evolves continuously into finite-drive regions of the dynamical phase diagram. It is argued that this conclusion also applies for a large class of periodic pinning potentials. |
