This allows us to study the interplay between disorder, elasticity and interactions in reduced dimensions and to test an extensive body of theoretical work. This is important because vortices and vortex matter share many features with a wide variety of systems across different fields including polymers, magnetic domain walls, strongly driven fluids, friction, and spin-glasses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Novel materials.<\/strong> One of the strengths of scanned probes is that they can be rapidly applied to a new material without much device development. For example, we are developing and implementing methods to study the penetration depth \u03bb in superconductors. This is important because while \u03bb encodes much information about the superconducting state, it is notoriously hard to measure. In addition, we are able to gain information about the unavoidable disorder in samples by mapping the locations of superconducting vortices which tend to be attracted to defects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span lang=\"en-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ongoing experiments in the lab are related to: Skyrmions in magnetic thin films.
