Surface Josephson plasma waves in layered superconductors.
We predict the existence of surface waves in layered superconductors in the THz frequency range, below the Josephson plasma frequency omega J. This wave propagates along the vacuum-superconductor interface and dampens in both transverse directions out of the surface (i.e., towards the superconductor and towards the vacuum). This is the first prediction of propagating surface waves in any superc...
متن کاملJosephson Effect in Unconventional Superconductors
In this letter we present a simple relation, that allows one to predict the Josephson current between two unconventional superconductors with arbitrary band-structure and pairing symmetry. We illustrate this relation with examples of s-wave and d-wave junctions and show a detailed numerical comparison with the phenomenological Sigrist and Rice relation [1] commonly used to interpret tunneling e...
متن کاملJosephson Effect between Conventional and Rashba Superconductors
We study the Josephson effect between a conventional s-wave superconductor and a non-centrosymmetric superconductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Rashba spin-orbit coupling affects the Josephson pair tunneling in a characteristic way. The Josephson coupling can be decomposed into two parts, a ‘spin-singlet-like’ and a ‘spin-triplet-like’ component. The latter component can lead to shift of t...
متن کاملFate of the Josephson effect in thin-film superconductors
The dc Josephson effect refers to the dissipationless electrical current – the supercurrent – that can be sustained across a weak link connecting two bulk superconductors.1 This effect is a probe of the fundamental nature of the superconducting state, which depends crucially on the spatial dimensionality of the superconducting electrodes. For bulk (i.e. threedimensional) superconductors, the su...
متن کاملAnomalous Josephson effect between even- and odd-frequency superconductors.
We demonstrate that, contrary to standard wisdom, the lowest-order Josephson coupling is possible between odd- and even-frequency superconductors. The origin of this effect is the induced odd- (even-)frequency pairing component at the interface of bulk even- (odd-)frequency superconductors. The resulting current-phase relation is found to be proportional to cosphi, where phi is the macroscopic ...
