Microwave response of an Andreev bound state
نویسندگان
چکیده
The simplest junction between two superconductors hosts one Andreev bound state, which can be occupied by 0, 1, or 2 quasiparticles. properties of these many-body states are sensitive to the spatial structure single-particle wave functions as well charging effects. These influences revealed through microwave response junction.

Anomalous Andreev bound state in noncentrosymmetric superconductors.
We study edge states of noncentrosymmetric superconductors where spin-singlet d-wave pairing mixes with spin-triplet p (or f)-wave one by spin-orbit coupling. For d(xy)-wave pairing, the obtained Andreev bound state has an anomalous dispersion as compared to conventional helical edge modes. A unique topologically protected time-reversal invariant Majorana bound state appears at the edge. The ch...

متن کاملAndreev 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...
متن کاملMesoscopic superconductors under irradiation: Microwave spectroscopy of Andreev states
We show that irradiation of a voltage-biased superconducting quantum point contact at frequencies of the order of the gap energy can remove the suppression of subgap dc transport through Andreev levels. Quantum interference among resonant scattering events involving photon absorption is furthermore shown to make microwave spectroscopy of the Andreev levels feasible. We also discuss how the same...
متن کاملAndreev bound states in rounded corners of d-wave superconductors
Andreev bound states at boundaries of d-wave superconductors are strongly influenced by the boundary geometry itself. In this work, the zero-energy spectral weight of the local quasiparticle density of states is presented for the case of wedge-shaped boundaries with rounded corners. Generally, both orientation of the d-wave and the specific local reflection properties of the rounded wedges dete...
