Abstract
The vortex flow and the resistive transition of granular Al films have been measured as a function of the magnetic field perpendicular to the film surface. The effects of fluctuations of the superconducting order parameter on the vortex flow resistanceR f are discussed and compared with the theory of Maki and Takayama. The depression ofR f belowH c2 has been observed together with an electric field dependence ofR f. The depression ofR f is shown to agree qualitatively with the theoretical prediction. The field dependence ofR f appears to be related to that of the excess conductivity aboveH c2.
