Local density of states in superconductor–strong ferromagnet structures

First principles studies on band structures and density of states of graphite surface oxides

Graphite oxide constitutes carbon network with oxygen atoms both on hexagonal arrangement and the edge sites. Structural and electronic properties for graphite-oxygen complexes have been explored using first-principles total-energy calculations within the local density approximation (LDA). Band structures and density of states for the propose carbon 3D models are reported. A finite energy gap and...

Proximity Effects in Superconductor-Ferromagnet Structures

Andreev Bound States in Ferromagnet - Superconductor Nanostructures ⋆

We discuss the properties of a ferromagnet superconductor heterostructure on the basis of a Hubbard model featuring exchange splitting in the ferromagnet and electron electron attraction in the superconductor. We have solved the spin polarized Hartree Fock Gorkov equations together with the Maxwell’s equation (Ampere’s law) fully self-consistently. We have found that a Proximity Effect Fulde Fe...

Local Causal States and Discrete Coherent Structures

Coherent structures form spontaneously in nonlinear spatiotemporal systems and are found at all spatial scales in natural phenomena from laboratory hydrodynamic flows and chemical reactions to ocean, atmosphere, and planetary climate dynamics. Phenomenologically, they appear as key components that organize the macroscopic behaviors in such systems. Despite a century of effort, they have eluded ...
