摘要
We study the instability of the superconducting state in a mesoscopic geometry for the low pinning material Mo3Ge characterized by a large Ginzburg-Landau parameter. We observe that in the current-driven switching to the normal state from a nonlinear region of the Abrikosov flux flow, the mean critical vortex velocity reaches a limitingmaximum velocity as a function of the appliedmagnetic field. Based on time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau simulations, we argue that the observed behavior is due to the high-velocity vortex dynamics confined on a mesoscopic scale. We build up a general phase diagram which includes all possible dynamic configurations of the Abrikosov lattice in a mesoscopic superconductor.
