Oscillatory melting temperature of the vortex smectic phase in layered superconductors
We report on transport measurements of YBa 2Cu 3O 7- delta single crystals with different oxygen contents in the geometry B, J||ab (JperpB). Our data show that the vortices become confined between the Cu-O planes below a well-defined temperature at which the effective size 2 xi of the vortex core is...
