Abstract

We report on the dynamic as well as static properties of vortices in the low-temperature (T) solid phase of a thick amorphous Mo x Ge 1-x film with weak pinning. The vortex-solid state is considered to be a weakly disordered vortex lattice, which is inferred from the mode-locking resonance over the broad field region. The peak effect of the critical current Ic with magnetic field is clearly visible down to the lowest T measured (0.2 K), which corresponds to 3.3% of the superconducting transition temperature. We find that largest voltage noise originating from current-driven vortices appears in the field region just prior to the peak field at which Ic takes a peak. This is in accord with the result reported in NbSe 2 single crystals.
