It is present the phase diagram for the current states of superconducting films, based on the experimental in-
vestigation of the resistive transitions induced by the transport current. It is found that a comparatively narrow
film with the width w < 5λ⊥ (T) (λ⊥ is the penetration depth of the magnetic field) never enters the vortex state,
but experiences direct transition from the purely superconducting state to the resistive state with phase-slip cen-
ters as soon as the current exceeds the critical Ginzburg–Landau current Ic
GL. The Meissner current state of the
films of intermediate width, 5λ⊥(T) < w < 10λ⊥(T), transforms at I > 0.8Ic
GL to the vortex resistive state which
exists within the current interval 0.8Ic
GL < I < Im, where the value of the upper critical current is in a good
agreement with the heory. The vortex state of wide films, w > 10λ⊥(T), is realized within the current region
Ic
AL < I < Im, where Ic
AL is the transition point to the vortex state calculated for the limiting case w >> λ⊥. At I >
Im, the films with the width w > 5λ⊥(T) enter a vortex-free resistive state with phase-slip lines.

the superconducting state of the channel is destroyed and
transforms to the normal state, as shown in Fig. 1. In (1),
0Φ is the magnetic flux quantum, w is the film width,
2(0) 2 (0)/d⊥λ = λ is the penetration depth of the magnetic
field into the superconducting film, (0)ξ and (0)λ are the
coherence length and London length, respectively, at zero
temperature, and d is the film thickness. Later it was
found that the real scenario of the resistive phase transition
of the superconducting channel is more complex. Namely,
as the transport current exceeds ( )GL
cI T , an inhomogene-
ous resistive state appears in the channel, consisting of
alternating superconducting and quasi-normal regions [2];
the latter are the specific dynamic formations known as
phase-slip centers (PSCs). The number of PSCs increases
with the transport current, and at GL
cn cI I I= the resis-
tive state turns to the completely normal state. The basic
feature of the current-voltage characteristics (IVCs) of su-
perconducting channels in the resistive state are regular
voltage steps (Fig. 2), which were first observed in tin
whiskers [3,4] and in narrow tin films [5]. We note the
following important peculiarities of the step-like IVCs: the

multiplicity of differential resistances of the sloping IVC
parts, the intersection of the continued sloping parts
(dashed lines) at a single point on the current axis, and the
absence of hysteresis which indicates the non-heating na-
ture of the voltage steps.
To the present time, the resistive state of narrow super-
conducting channels has been rather well studied experi-
mentally, and the theory of this state has been universally
recognized. In our opinion, this is not the case for the resis-
tive state of a wide film, in spite of the fact that the study
of current-carrying states in wide films started much earlier
than the investigations of superconducting channels. In
1963, Tinkham [6] first involved the vortex conception for
calculation of the critical fields of thin films. It was found
in [7] that the motion of vortices, induced by the magnetic
field of the Earth or the transport current, plays the crucial
role in formation of the initial part of the IVCs. In next
studies, the resistive state of wide films was associated
only with the vortex motion. This looked quite natural be-
cause at that time, typical observed IVCs were similar to
that shown in Fig. 3, with abrupt transition from the vortex
resistive state to the normal state. We believe that in most
cases, the origin of such a break-off form of the IVC is
imperfection of both the experimental conditions and the
samples. We note that in the experimental studies of the
resistive state, the heat compliance between the film and
the substrate plays an important role [8]. If the choice of
the pair «film–substrate» is not optimal, or the adhesion of
the film to the substrate is imperfect, the Joule overheating
of the film in the resistive state leads to the break-off IVCs
shown in Figs. 1 and 3.
In 1972, in study of wide tin films sputtered on the
quartz substrate which provides optimal heat compliance,
the authors of [9] observed not only a typical vortex region
of the IVC at small transport current, but also a step-like
structure at large current, which obtained no physical ex-
planation at that time. Relying on the recommendations
given in [8], the authors of [10] fabricated the films having
the IVCs similar to that shown in Fig. 4. Then, using their
knowledge about the phase-slip processes in narrow chan-
nels, they associated the voltage steps in the IVCs of wide
films with the creation of phase-slip lines (PSLs). At the
present time, it seemed that such a form of the IVC for a
wide film, consisting of the vortex region and the step-
like part due to the PSLs, is widely recognized; see, e.g.,
[9–13]. However, the break-off-type IVCs are still fre-
quently observed [14-18].
Let us first discuss the theoretical models of the vortex
resistive state. We would like to draw one’s attention to the
theoretical papers [20,21] which do not explain the whole
form of the IVC shown in Fig. 4, but give a rather good
description of the vortex part of the IVC. In wide thin su-
perconducting films, the magnetic field of the transport
current gives rise to the creation of Pearl vortices at the
film edges. The motion of the vortices across the film leads
to the occurrence of a voltage along the film. On the basis
of such a picture of the resistive vortex state, the equation
for the critical current was found by Aslamazov and Lem-
pitskiy (AL) [20],

using the condition of stability of the Meissner state with
respect to an infinitely small perturbation of the supercon-
ducting order parameter. Physically, at AL
cI I= , the edge
current density approaches the GL critical value, and the
edge barrier for the vortex entry disappears. In order to
describe the vortex part of the IVC, AL studied the viscous
motion of the vortices in the film, using the hydrodynamic
approximation which assumes introduction of averaged
macroscopic quantities: the density of vortices and the av-
eraged current density satisfying the macroscopic equa-
tions which connect these quantities with the averaged
electric field. According to this theory, the evolution of the
resistive vortex state looks as follows. As the current
grows, the vortex density increases, and the current distri-
bution across the film becomes more homogeneous. At a
certain current value,
( 1 2)( ) ( ) ln (2 ( ))GL AL
m c cI T C I T w T Iλ−
⊥= , (3)
the current density approaches its critical value not only at
the film edges, where the vortices are born, but also in the
middle of the film cross-section, where the vortices and
anti-vortices annihilate. At this moment the vortex state
becomes unstable, although the distance between vortices
is still larger than the size of the vortex core, and the au-
thors of [20] assert that the film undergoes jump-like tran-
sition to the normal state, as shown in Fig. 3. The experi-
mental study of wide films [12] confirmed much of the
statements of the AL theory, including correctness of equa-
tions (2) and (3). Besides, these investigations also resulted
in considerable refinements of several points of the theory.
It turned out [12] that the vortex resistivity occurs only at
large enough film width, 5 ( )w T⊥> λ , and at mI I> the
film undergoes transition not to the normal state, but to a
vortex-free state with PSLs (Fig. 4). Such a picture of the
resistive state of a wide film was later recognized in [22]
by S.V. Lempitskiy, one of the authors of the resistive vor-
tex state theory. He predicted that if the distances between
PSLs are larger than the penetration depth for the electric
field into the superconductor, then the IVC of a wide film
will be described by known equations for a vortex-free
narrow superconducting channel [2]. This result was also
confirmed experimentally [23,24].
Another approach to the analysis of the vortex mechan-
ism of resistivity was used by Vodolazov and Peeters [21]
which performed numerical solution of extended time-
dependent Ginzburg–Landau equations [25,26] for the vor-
tex motion in the superconducting plate, formally consider-
ing an infinitely thick superconducting slab which reduces
the problem to a two-dimensional one. In this aspect, the
problem becomes rather close to the problem of the vortex
state in a thin film, although the structure of vortices in
these cases is quite different: exponential decay of the
magnetic field around the Abrikosov vortices in a massive
slab and slow power-like decay around the Pearl vortices
in a thin film. The results of [21] generally confirm the
macroscopic analysis of the vortex state by AL [20]: when
the current exceeds the critical value, at which the surface
barrier for the vortex entry is suppressed, the vortices and
anti-vortices enter the slab and then, being affected by the
transport current, move to the middle of the sample, where
they annihilate. This process leads to a maximum of the
current density in the middle of the sample, in accordance
with macroscopic calculations in [20]. At moderate values
of the transport current, the vortex structure of the sample
is close to the triangle lattice. However, when the current
density in the middle of the sample approaches the depair-
ing value, i.e., when the transport current approaches mI ,
the triangle vortex lattice turns into row-like vortex struc-
ture. The authors of [21] interpret this phenomenon as the
creation of quasi-PSLs due to acceleration of the vortex–
anti-vortex annihilation and anomalously rapid motion of
the vortices. According to this theory, the PSLs represent
the rows of rapidly moving vortices which occur simulta-
neously along the whole length of the sample. This contra-
dicts the experimental data shown in Fig. 4 which indicate
consequent appearance of the PSLs while the transport
current increases. For this reason, in order to confirm their
conclusions, the authors of [21] refer only to the experi-
ments [14–18], in which the break-off-like IVCs were ob-
served. In our opinion, these experiments have mutual
drawback: the substrates do not provide a good heat re-
moval from the films. This is indicated by hysteresis ob-
served, e.g., in [16], or by low quality of the films with
numerous pinning centers and bad adhesion with the sub-
strate, as in [15]. We believe that for these reasons, the
PSLs occur in such films in an avalanche, which is accom-
panied by a break-off in the IVC. Our point of view is sup-
ported by the results of investigation of the resistive state
of wide films by the laser scanning microscope [19]. Due
to specifics of this method, the film is overheated by the
laser irradiation, which gives rise to the break-off behavior
of the IVC (Fig. 3). However, the visualization of the resis-
tive state by this microscope shows that at mI I> the
number of PSLs increases smoothly with the transport cur-
rent, starting from the single PSL at mI I= .
Now we proceed to the results of our experimental stu-
dies. The samples whose characteristics are given in the
Table were fabricated by using an original technique which
provides minimization of bulk defects and results in per-
fect, almost specular, film edges. All such samples show
full GL critical current in a near vicinity of cT , where the
condition of narrow channel regime ( )w T⊥< λ is satis-
fied; actually, this criterion was used for the selection of
samples for next experiments in the resistive state. Special
attention was devoted to the quality of the substrate —
optically polished crystalline quartz, which seems to be the
better material for the heat removal from tin films.
Phase diagram of a current-carrying superconducting film in absence of the magnetic field

As follows from the AL theory [20] (see (2) and (3)),
the reduced critical currents ( )AL GL
c cI I T and ( )GL
m cI I T
for wide films, 1w λ⊥ , must be universal functions of
the basic parameter of the theory, ( )w T⊥λ . In other
words, the dependencies of the reduced critical currents on
this parameter should be not affected either by the geome-
try of the films, or by their material properties. Our expe-
rimental results completely confirm such universality and,
moreover, extend it over the small values of w ⊥λ . Ex-
amples of the experimental dependencies of the reduced
critical currents are presented in Fig. 5. To avoid overload-
ing of the figure, we plot the results obtained on a single
pair of essentially different films; other samples demon-
strate quite similar behavior. The triangles (direct and in-
verted) correspond to the upper boundary of the purely
superconducting state. In the regime of narrow film (super-
conducting channel), 5w ⊥λ < , the sample is completely
superconducting until the transport current reaches the GL
depairing current; at GL
cI I≥ the film undergoes transition
to the resistive state with one-dimensional PSCs. Corres-
pondingly, this part of the dependence of GL
c cI I can be
approximated by horizontal straight line. When the ratio
w ⊥λ exceeds 5, an unusual phenomenon is observed: the
value of the critical current sharply falls to 0.8 GL
cI (verti-
cal approximating line) and then holds this value until
w ⊥λ reaches 10 (second horizontal line). As soon as the
transport current exceeds 0.8 GL
cI , the film enters the vor-
tex resistive state, in accordance with general conclusions
of the theory. However, such behavior of cI is inconsis-
tent with the AL theory, even with its generalized version
valid for the case of arbitrary value of w ⊥λ and devel-
oped by us. Formal consideration of this problem leads to
the conclusion that at 5 10w ⊥< λ < the vortices can
overcome the edge barrier when the edge current density
approaches the value 2(1 )c cj T T−∼ much smaller than
the GL critical density 3 2(1 )GL
c cj T T−∼ , but the physi-
cal mechanism of such anomalous penetration of vortices
into the film is unclear. For very wide films with the trans-
versal size 10w ⊥> λ , the experimental data excellently
agree with the AL theory (curve 1 in Fig. 5). The experi-
mental values of the upper boundary of the stability of the
vortex state, ( )GL
m cI I T , are plotted in Fig. 5 for two dif-
ferent films by circles and squares. As it is obvious from
Fig. 5, these data well correlate with the result (3) of the
AL theory with the fitting parameter 1.6C = (curve 2).
The set of lines in Fig. 5 can be considered as critical
lines at the phase diagram for thin superconducting films.
These lines divide the phase plane «reduced current
GL
cI I – reduced film width w ⊥λ » into three regions.
The lower region, cI I< , corresponds to the completely
superconducting state: the homogeneous current state in
narrow films ( 5w ⊥< λ ) or the Meissner state in wide films
( 5w ⊥> λ ). For the latter case, there exists the intermediate
vortex resistive region, c mI I I< < , where 0.8 GL
c cI I= at
5 10w⊥ ⊥λ < < λ , and AL
c cI I= for 10w ⊥> λ . Then, at
mI I> the wide film ( 5w ⊥> λ ), enters the resistive state
with PSLs, while the narrow film ( 5w ⊥< λ ) exhibits di-
rect transition at GL
cI I> to the resistive state with PSCs.
In conclusion, we develop the phase diagram for the
current states of superconducting films, based on the expe-
rimental investigation of the resistive transitions induced
by the transport current in the films. We found that a nar-
row film with the width 5w ⊥< λ never enters the vortex
state, but experiences direct transition from the purely su-
perconducting state to the resistive state with PSCs as soon
as the current exceeds the critical GL current. The Meiss-
ner current state of the films of intermediate width,
