MANA Reveals Atomic-Scale Rails for Guiding Superconducting Vortices

The Quantum InsiderSeptember 26, 20262 min read

Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — Researchers at the Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA), one of the centers under the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Japan, discovered that atomic-scale steps can guide superconducting vortices in an ultrathin superconductor. Vortices moved more than 1,000 times more easily along the steps than across them, and this […]

Researchers at Japan’s National Institute for Materials Science found that atomic-scale surface steps can guide superconducting vortices in an ultrathin superconductor. Vortices moved more than 1,000 times more easily along the steps than across them at intermediate…
