We have performed small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) of the flux line lattice (FLL) in a Fe doped NbSe_2 sample which presents a large peak effect in the critical current. The scattered intensity and the width of the Bragg peaks of the equilibrium FLL indicate an ordered structure in the peak effect zone. The history dependence in the FLL structure has been studied using field cooled and zero field cooled procedures, and each state shows the same intensity of Bragg scattering and good orientational order. These results strongly suggest that the peak effect is unrelated to a bulk disordering transition, and confirm the role of a heterogeneous distribution of screening current.

The influence of Twin Boundaries (TB) on the Flux Line Lattice(FLL) structure was investigated by Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). YBaCuO single crystals possessing different TB densities were studied. The SANS experiments show that the TB stro
ngly modify the structure of the FLL. The flux lines meander as soon as the magnetic field makes an angle with the TB direction. According to the value of this angle but also to the ratio of the flux lines density over the TB density, one observes that the FLL exhibits two different unit cells in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. One is the classical hexagonal and anisotropic cell while the other is affected by an additional deformation induced by the TB. We discuss a possible relation between this deformation and the increase of the critical current usually observed in heavily twinned samples.
We present a unifying picture of the magnetic in-plane anisotropies of two-dimensional superconductors based on transition metal dichalcogenides. The symmetry considerations are first applied to constrain the form of the conductivity tensor. We hence
conclude that the two-fold periodicity of transport distinct from the planar Hall related contributions requires a tensor perturbation. At the same time, the six-fold periodic variation of the critical field results from the Rashba spin-orbit coupling on a hexagonal lattice. We have considered the effect of a weak tensor perturbation on the critical field, gap function, and magneto-conductivity. The latter is studied using the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau phenomenology. The common origin of the two-fold anisotropy in transport and thermodynamics properties is identified. The scheme constructed here is applied to describe the existing theoretical scenarios from a unified point of view. This allows us to single out the differences and similarities between the suggested approaches.
A percolation transition in the vortex state of a superconducting 2H-NbSe2 crystal is observed in the regime where vortices form a heterogeneous phase consisting of ordered and disordered domains. The transition is signaled by a sharp increase in cri
tical current that occurs when the volume fraction of disordered domains, obtained from pulsed measurements of the current-voltage characteristics, reaches the value Pc= 0.26. Measurements on different vortex states show that while the temperature of the transition depends on history and measurement speed, the value of Pc and the critical exponent characterizing the approach to it, r =1.97 $pm$ 0.66, are universal.
To address unsolved fundamental problems of the intermediate state (IS), the equilibrium magnetic flux structure and the critical field in a high purity type-I superconductor (indium film) are investigated using magneto-optical imaging with a 3D vect
or magnet and electrical transport measurements. The least expected observation is that the critical field in the IS can be as small as nearly 40% of the thermodynamic critical field $H_c$. This indicates that the flux density in the textit{bulk} of normal domains can be textit{considerably} less than $H_c$, in apparent contradiction with the long established paradigm, stating that the normal phase is unstable below $H_c$. Here we present a novel theoretical model consistently describing this and textit{all} other properties of the IS. Moreover, our model, based the rigorous thermodynamic treatment of observed laminar flux structure in a tilted field, allows for a textit{quantitative} determination of the domain-wall parameter and the coherence length, and provides new insight into the properties of all superconductors.
The vortex electronic structure in the multiband superconductor NbSe2 is studied by means of Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STS) using a superconducting tip. The use of a superconducting tip (Pb) as a probe provides an enhancement of the different
features related to the DOS of NbSe2 in the tunneling conductance curves. This use allows the observation of rich patterns of electronic states in the conductance images around the vortex cores in a wide range of temperature, as well as the simultaneous acquisition of Josephson current images in the vortex state.
