RT Journal Article T1 Lattice effects and current reversal in superconducting ratchets A1 Dinis Vizcaíno, Luis Ignacio A1 González Herrera, Elvira María A1 Vicent López, José Luis A1 Rodríguez Parrondo, Juan Manuel A1 Anguita, J. V. AB Competition between the vortex lattice and a lattice of asymmetric artificial defects is shown to play a crucial role in ratchet experiments in superconducting films. We present a novel and collective mechanism for current reversal based on a reconfiguration of the vortex lattice. In contrast to previous models of vortex current reversal, the mechanism is based on the global response of the vortex lattice to external forces PB IOP Publishing SN 1367-2630 YR 2007 FD 2007-10-09 LK https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/52061 UL https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/52061 LA eng NO Dinis, L., González Herrera, E.
