Magnetic flux structures of finite superconducting networks.

In this review, we describe finite superconducting networks which consist of mutually connected superconducting wires. These are two-dimensional square and honeycomb networks and three-dimensional tetrahedron, octahedron and C60 networks. Because of multi-connectivity, they show a wide variety of magnetic flux structures under an external magnetic field. Also we show the effect of disorder on the flux structures and the penetration dynamics of the fluxons. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
