Abstract:
A dc voltage induced by an external ac current was observed in a system of asymmetric aluminum loops at temperatures corresponding to 0.95–0.98 of the superconducting transition temperature. The voltage magnitude and sign change periodically in a magnetic field with a period corresponding to the magnetic flux quantum through the loop. The amplitude of these oscillations depends nonmonotonically on the amplitude of ac current and is almost independent of its frequency in the range from 100 Hz to 1 MHz. The observed phenomenon is interpreted as the result of displacing the loop into a dynamic resistive state by the external current, where the loop is «switched» back and forth between the closed superconducting state with a nonzero steady current and the nonclosed state with a nonzero resistance along the loop circle. It is shown that voltages are summed up in a system of loops connected in series. For systems with one, three, and twenty loops, the voltage reaches 10, 40, and 300 $\mathrm{\mu V}$, respectively.
