متن کاملLocalized superconductivity in the quantum-critical region of the disorder-driven superconductor-insulator transition in TiN thin films.
We investigate low-temperature transport properties of thin TiN superconducting films in the vicinity of the disorder-driven superconductor-insulator transition. In a zero magnetic field, we find an extremely sharp separation between superconducting and insulating phases, evidencing a direct superconductor-insulator transition without an intermediate metallic phase. At moderate temperatures, in...
متن کاملVortices and quasiparticles near the superconductor-insulator transition in thin films.
We study the low temperature behavior of an amorphous superconducting film driven normal by a perpendicular magnetic-field (B). For this purpose we introduce a new two-fluid formulation consisting of fermionized field-induced vortices and electrically neutralized Bogoliubov quasiparticles (spinons) interacting via a long-ranged statistical interaction. This approach allows us to access a novel ...
متن کاملElectron Quasiparticles Drive the Superconductor - to - Insulator Transition in Homogeneously Disordered Thin Films
Transport data on Bi, MoGe, and PbBi/Ge homogeneously-disordered thin films demonstrate that the critical resistivity, Rc, at the nominal insulator-superconductor transition is linearly proportional to the normal sheet resistance, RN . In addition, the critical magnetic field scales linearly with the superconducting energy gap and is well-approximated by Hc2. Because RN is determined at high te...
متن کاملScaling analysis of field-tuned superconductor–insulator transition in two-dimensional tantalum thin films
The superconductor-insulator (SI) transition in two-dimensional Ta thin films is investigated by controlling both film thickness and magnetic field. An intriguing metallic phase appears between a superconducting and an insulating phase within a range of film thickness and magnetic field. The temperature and electric field scaling analyses are performed to investigate the nature of the SI transi...
