To recover the dissipation-free conduction state, strategies for minimizing vortex motion have been intensely studied in the last decades. However, the non-local vortex motion, arising in areas depleted of current, has been scarcely investigated despite its potential application for logic devices. Here, we propose a route to transfer vortices carried by non-local motion through long distances (up to 10 micrometers) in 50 nm-wide superconducting WC nanowires grown by Ga+ Focused Ion Beam Induced Deposition. A giant non-local electrical resistance of 36 O has been measured at 2 K in 3 µm-long nanowires, which is 40 times higher than signals reported for wider wires of other superconductors. This giant effect is accounted for by the existence of a strong edge confinement potential that hampers transversal vortex displacements, allowing the long-range coherent displacement of a single vortex row along the superconducting channel. Experimental results are in good agreement with numerical simulations of vortex dynamics based on the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. Our results pave the way for future developments on information technologies built upon single vortex manipulation in nano-superconductors. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/CSIC/PIE-201760E027 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/E13-17R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA-FEDER/E28-17R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/679080/EU/Using extreme magnetic field microscopy to visualize correlated electron materials/PNICTEYES This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 679080-PNICTEYES info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO-FEDER/MAT2015-69725-REDT info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FIS2016-80434-P info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FIS2017-84330-R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/Juan de la Cierva Program info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/MAT2017-82970-C2-1-R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/MAT2017-82970-C2-2-R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/MDM-2014-0377 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.998 2019 MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENCES 17 / 71 = 0.239 2019 Q1 T1 1.341 2019 Multidisciplinary 2019 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion (orcid)0000-0002-6087-7467 Orús, Pablo Jelic, Željk L.
