Commensurability between vortex spacing and half the crystal lattice constant in NdBa2Cu3Oy single crystals
Commensurability between vortex spacing and half the crystal lattice constant in NdBa2Cu3Oy single crystals
Commensurability effects between vortex distance and crystal lattice constant are investigated by angular dependent magnetization in very pure twinned and twin-free NdBa2Cu3Oy single crystals. With increasing temperature the incommensurate states split up and become finally commensurate with half the crystal unit cell. These additional commensurate states are related to a second intrinsic pinning potential within the unit cell or alternatively to a superstructure from distortion of the vortex lattice with respect to the crystal lattice. The role of twins which favor and/or stabilizes the double periodicity is discussed furthermore.

Abstract
Commensurability effects between vortex distance and crystal lattice constant are investigated by angular dependent magnetization in very pure twinned and twin-free NdBa2Cu3Oy single crystals. With increasing temperature the incommensurate states split up and become finally commensurate with half the crystal unit cell. These additional commensurate states are related to a second intrinsic pinning potential within the unit cell or alternatively to a superstructure from distortion of the vortex lattice with respect to the crystal lattice. The role of twins which favor and/or stabilizes the double periodicity is discussed furthermore.
