The elastic properties of the flux line lattice (FLL) in type II superconductors are calculated from the linearized Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory for large inductionsB≈Hc2. They appear to be strongly nonlocal, i.e., the elastic modulic11andc44for homogeneous deformations do not apply if the strain field varies over distances λ/(1−B/Hc2)1/2≫d(λ is the penetration depth,dis the FL distance). For smaller strain wavelength,c11andc44are smaller by factors (1−B/Hc2)2/2κ2and (1−B/Hc2)/ 2κ2, respectively. The order parameter and local field of a deformed FLL exhibit the expected spatial “frequency modulation,” but also a pronounced “amplitude modulation” whose degree of modulation increases with the strain wavelength. The results of further calculations avoiding the linearization of the GL theory are given.
