Abstract
The vortex lattices in YNi2B2C under the magnetic fields H up to 3 T applied along both the a and the c axes have been studied by scanning tunneling spectroscopy at 4.2 K. The vortex lattice transition has been found to occur in different manners for H parallela and H parallelc; in H parallela a slightly distorted hexagonal vortex lattice has been found to transform to a nearly square one above 1.0 T with increasing H, while in H parallelc the transition occurs at a much lower field around 0.1 T. The unconventional steep increase of the quasiparticle density of states outside the vortex core has also been found well below H(c2).
