Title: Vortex phases and glassy dynamics in the highly anisotropic superconductor HgBa₂CuO_4+δ

Abstract

We present an extensive study of vortex dynamics in a high-quality single crystal of HgBa2CuO4+delta, a highly anisotropic superconductor that is a model system for studying the effects of anisotropy. From magnetization M measurements over a wide range of temperatures T and fields H, we construct a detailed vortex phase diagram. We find that the temperature-dependent vortex penetration field H-p(T), second magnetization peak H-smp(T), and irreversibility field H-irr(T) all decay exponentially at low temperatures and exhibit an abrupt change in behavior at high temperatures T/T-c > similar to 0.5. By measuring the rates of thermally activated vortex motion (creep) S(T, H) = vertical bar dInM(T, H)/dInt vertical bar, we reveal glassy behavior involving collective creep of bundles of 2D pancake vortices as well as temperature- and time tuned crossovers from elastic (collective) dynamics to plastic flow. Based on the creep results, we show that the second magnetization peak coincides with the elastic-to-plastic crossover at low T, yet the mechanism changes at higher temperatures.

We have studied the magnetic hysteresis and relaxation processes of grain-aligned HgBa{sub 2}CuO{sub 4+{delta}}, HgBa{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 6+{delta}}, and HgBa{sub 2}Ca{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 8+{delta}} compounds. The penetration field, {ital H}{sub {ital p}}, the width of the magnetization loops, {Delta}{ital M}, and the irreversibility field, {ital H}{sub irr}, of each compound were found to exhibit an exponential temperature dependence [i.e., {ital H}{sub {ital p}}, {ital H}{sub irr}, {Delta}{ital M}{proportional_to}exp({minus}{ital cT}/{ital T}{sub 0})]. This suggests that their magnetic relaxation is controlled by the penetration of two-dimensional pancake vortices over the Bean-Livingston surface barrier.

Plastic Vortex Creep in YBa{sub {bold 2}}Cu{sub {bold 3}}O{sub {bold 7{minus}}}{ital x} Crystals

Journal Article Abulafia, Y ; Shaulov, A ; Wolfus, Y ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Local magnetic relaxation measurements in YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{ital x}} crystals show evidence for plastic vortex creep associated with the motion of dislocations in the vortex lattice. This creep mechanism governs the vortex dynamics in a wide range of temperatures and fields below the melting line and above the field corresponding to the peak in the {open_quote}{open_quote}fishtail{close_quote}{close_quote} magnetization. In this range the activation energy {ital U}{sub pl}, which decreases with field, drops below the elastic (collective) creep activation energy, {ital U}{sub el}, which increases with field. A crossover in flux dynamics from elastic to plastic creep is shown to bemore »« less

Synchrotron x-ray scattering study of charge-density-wave order in ${HgBa}_{2} {CuO}_{4 + δ}$

Journal Article Tabis, W. ; Yu, B. ; Bialo, I. ; ... - Physical Review B

We present a detailed synchrotron x-ray scattering study of the charge-density-wave (CDW) order in simple tetragonal HgBa2CuO4+delta (Hg1201). Resonant soft x-ray scattering measurements reveal that short-range order appears at a temperature that is distinctly lower than the pseudogap temperature and in excellent agreement with a prior transient reflectivity result. Despite considerable structural differences between Hg1201 and YBa2Cu3O6+delta, the CDWcorrelations exhibit similar doping dependencies, and we demonstrate a universal relationship between the CDWwave vector and the size of the reconstructed Fermi pocket observed in quantum oscillation experiments. The CDWcorrelations in Hg1201 vanish already below optimal doping, once the correlation length ismore »« less

Dislocation-mediated flux creep in Bi sub 2 Sr sub 2 CaCu sub 2 O sub 8+. delta

Journal Article van der Beek, C J ; Kes, P H - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (USA)

We have investigated the possible role of two-dimensional vortex-lattice defects in thermally assisted flux flow for the very anisotropic high-temperature superconductor Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}} (Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O). At low current densities, this mechanism, which we shall refer to as plastic flux creep, is expected to prevail over creep of elastically correlated flux bundles, or elastic creep. It is assumed that vortices are pinned by oxygen vacancies, for which the elementary interaction is obtained. Measurements of the ac susceptibility in an applied dc field, {ital B}{sub {ital c}1}{lt}{mu}{sub 0}{ital H}{lt}0.2{ital B}{sub {ital c}2}, carried out using a sufficiently low driving-field amplitude,more »« less
