Abstract
The problem of a vortex situated near the edge of a thin superconducting film is solved. The flux associated with the vortex is shown to be less than the flux quantum in a broad domain adjacent to the film edge. The suppression of the vortex flux is strong in narrow thin-film bridges and scales with the ratio of the strip width to the film penetration depth.Keywords
