Researchers discovered a new delocalization line in vortex liquids with defects. This line separates a homogeneous liquid from a "nanoliquid" phase where vortices form interconnected droplets.

Area of Science:

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Magnetism

Background:

  • Vortices in superconductors and superfluids exhibit liquid and solid phases.
  • Columnar defects influence vortex behavior and phase transitions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate vortex dynamics in the presence of a low density of columnar defects.
  • To identify new phase transitions within the reversible vortex liquid region.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a differential magneto-optical technique.
  • Visualized the flow of transport currents to observe vortex behavior.

Main Results:

  • Identified a novel delocalization line within the reversible vortex liquid.
  • Distinguished between a homogeneous vortex liquid and a heterogeneous "nanoliquid" phase.

  • The nanoliquid phase features interconnected vortex droplets caged by pinned vortices.

    • Conclusions:

    • The delocalization line signifies a transition to a complex vortex state.
    • The nanoliquid phase exhibits anisotropy, with correlations along defect lines but no transverse critical current.
