Phase diagram in highly anisotropic layered superconductors: crossing lattice melting transitions

Recently, the crossing vortex lattice state in highly layered superconductors such as Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ has been explored both theoretically and experimentally by intensive studies in magnetic fields parallel to the superconducting CuO2 plane. We discuss to establish the vortex phase diagram obtained...

Description
Summary:Recently, the crossing vortex lattice state in highly layered superconductors such as Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ has been explored both theoretically and experimentally by intensive studies in magnetic fields parallel to the superconducting CuO2 plane. We discuss to establish the vortex phase diagram obtained by the novel ac-miniature coil measurement with emphasis on the spatial symmetry breaking.
