The complex-field approach is developed to derive analytical expressions of the magnetic field distributions around superconducting strips on ferromagnetic substrates (SC/FM strips). We consider the ferromagnetic substrates as ideal soft magnets with an infinite magnetic permeability, neglecting the ferromagnetic hysteresis. On the basis of the critical state model for a superconducting strip, the ac susceptibility $chi_1+ichi_1$ of a SC/FM strip exposed to a perpendicular ac magnetic field is theoretically investigated, and the results are compared with those for superconducting strips on nonmagnetic substrates (SC/NM strips). The real part $chi_1$ for $H_0/j_cd_sto 0$ (where $H_0$ is the amplitude of the ac magnetic field, $j_c$ is the critical current density, and $d_s$ is the thickness of the superconducting strip) of a SC/FM strip is 3/4 of that of a SC/NM strip. The imaginary part $chi_1$ (or ac loss $Q$) for $H_0/j_cd_s<0.14$ of a SC/FM strip is larger than that of a SC/NM strip, even when the ferromagnetic hysteresis is neglected, and this enhancement of $chi_1$ (or $Q$) is due to the edge effect of the ferromagnetic substrate.

A transport current distribution over a wide superconducting sheet is shown to strongly change in a presence of bulk magnetic screens of a soft magnet with a high permeability. Depending on the geometry, the effect may drastically suppress or protect the Meissner state of the sheet through the enhancement or suppression of the edge barrier critical current. The total transport current in the magnetically screened Meissner state is expected to compete with the critical current of the flux-filled sheet only for samples whose critical current is initially essentially controlled by the edge barrier effect.
We theoretically investigate the magnetic response of two-dimensional arrays of superconducting strips, which are regarded as essential structures of dc magnetic metamaterials. We analytically obtain local distributions of the magnetic field for the ideal complete shielding state (i.e., $Lambda/wto 0$, where $2w$ is the strip width, $Lambda=lambda^2/d$ is the Pearl length, $lambda$ is the London penetration depth, and $d$ is the strip thickness), and derive effective permeability by averaging the local field distributions. We also perform numerical calculations for a realistic case, taking finite $Lambda/w>0$ into account. We investigate two types of strip arrays: a rectangular array and a hexagonal array. The resulting effective permeability has large anisotropy that depends on the dimensions and arrangement of the superconducting strips, and the hexagonal array is found to be more advantageous for obtaining large anisotropy than the rectangular array.
We have theoretically investigated the magnetic response of two-dimensional (2D) arrays of superconducting and soft magnetic strips, which are regarded as models of dc magnetic metamaterials. The anisotropy of the macroscopic permeabilities depends on whether the applied magnetic field is parallel to the wide surface of the strips ($mu_{parallel}$) or perpendicular ($mu_{perp}$). For the 2D arrays of superconducting strips, $0<mu_{perp}/mu_0ll mu_{parallel}/mu_0simeq 1$, whereas for the 2D arrays of soft magnetic strips, $mu_{parallel}/mu_0ggmu_{perp}/mu_0simeq 1$, where $mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability. We also demonstrate that strong anisotropy of the macroscopic permeability can be obtained for hybrid arrays of superconducting and soft magnetic strips, where $mu_{parallel}/mu_0gg 1gg mu_{perp}/mu_0>0$.
A simple analytical expression is presented for hysteretic ac loss $Q$ of a superconducting strip simultaneously exposed to an ac transport current $I_0cosomega t$ and a phase-different ac magnetic field $H_0cos(omega t+theta_0)$. On the basis of Beans critical state model, we calculate $Q$ for small current amplitude $I_0ll I_c$, for small magnetic field amplitude $H_0ll I_c/2pi a$, and for arbitrary phase difference $theta_0$, where $I_c$ is the critical current and $2a$ is the width of the strip. The resulting expression for $Q=Q(I_0,H_0,theta_0)$ is a simple biquadratic function of both $I_0$ and $H_0$, and $Q$ becomes maximum (minimum) when $theta_0=0$ or $pi$ ($theta_0=pi/2$).
We show how to calculate the magnetic-field and sheet-current distributions for a thin-film superconducting annular ring (inner radius a, outer radius b, and thickness d<<a) when either the penetration depth obeys lambda < d/2 or, if lambda > d/2, the two-dimensional screening length obeys Lambda = 2 lambda^2/d << a for the following cases: (a) magnetic flux trapped in the hole in the absence of an applied magnetic field, (b) zero magnetic flux in the hole when the ring is subjected to an applied magnetic field, and (c) focusing of magnetic flux into the hole when a magnetic field is applied but no net current flows around the ring. We use a similar method to calculate the magnetic-field and sheet-current distributions and magnetization loops for a thin, bulk-pinning-free superconducting disk (radius b) containing a dome of magnetic flux of radius a when flux entry is impeded by a geometrical barrier.
