Tunneling into the Vortex State of NbSe<sub>2</sub> with van der Waals Junctions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We have performed device-based tunneling spectroscopy of NbSe2 in the vortex state with a magnetic field applied both parallel and perpendicular to the a–b plane. Our devices consist of layered semiconductors placed on top of exfoliated NbSe2 using the van der Waals transfer technique. At zero field, the spectrum exhibits a hard gap, and the quasiparticle peak is split into low- and high-energy features. The two features, associated with the effective two-band nature of superconductivity in NbSe2, exhibit markedly distinct responses to the application of magnetic field, suggesting an order-of-magnitude difference in the spatial extent of the vortex cores of the two bands. At energies below the superconducting gap, the hard gap gives way to vortex-bound Caroli–de Gennes–Matricon states, allowing the detection of individual vortices as they enter and exit the junction. Analysis of the subgap spectra upon application of parallel magnetic field allows us to track the process of vortex surface formation and spatial rearrangement in the bulk.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
