Abstract

Based on two-band time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau theory, we study the electromagnetic properties of mesoscopic type-1.5 superconductors with different defect configurations. We perform numerical simulations with the finite element method, and give direct evidence for the existence of a vortex cluster phase in the presence of nonmagnetic impurity. In addition, we also investigate the depinning critical current of the magnetic vortex cluster induced by the isotropic or anisotropic defect structure under the external current. Our theoretical results thus indicate that the diversity of impurity deposition has a significant influence on the semi-Meissner state in type-1.5 superconductors.
