Vortex matching effect in engineered thin films of NbN
We report robust vortex matching effects in antidot arrays fabricated on thin
films of NbN. The near absence of hysteresis between field sweep directions
indicates a negligible residual pinning in the host thin film. Owing to the
very small coherence length of NbN thin films (), the observations
suggests the possibility of probing physics of vortices at true nanometer
length scales in suitably fabricated structures.Comment: Submitted to Appl. Phys. Let
