Abstract
The controversial pinning dependence of the Hall conductivity (sigma(xy)) i s studied in the vortex-liquid phase of high-T-c superconducting thin films . A strong pinning dependence of sigma(xy) is found to be triggered by a cr ossover from a regular liquid to the glassy liquid (GL) when vortices remai n coupled in ab-plane. This result suggests that a non-linear effect in the GL region needs to be considered to account for the behavior of sigma(xy) in the whole vortex-liquid phase.
