โฆ Synopsis
The magnetic field (H) -temperature (T) phase boundary has been measured for mesoscopic superconducting samples of different topology (lines, loops and dots). Both the quantization effects and the slope of the Hc(T) line are fiflly governed by the confinement geometry. As a result, "quantum design" of superconducting critical parameters of mesoscopic systems becomes possible.
