Quantum confinement transition in a d-wave superconductor
We study the nature of the zero-temperature phase transition between a d-wave superconductor and a Mott insulator in two dimensions. In this ‘‘quantum confinement transition,’’ spin and charge are confined to form the electron in the Mott insulator. Within a dual formulation, direct transitions from d-wave superconductors at half-filling to insulators with spin-Peierls ~as well as other! order ...
متن کامل0 Quantum superconductor - metal transition
We consider a system of superconducting grains embedded in a normal metal. At zero temperature this system exhibits a quantum superconductor-normal metal phase transition. This transition can take place at arbitrary large con-ductance of the normal metal.
متن کاملDissipation-driven quantum phase transition in superconductor-graphene systems.
We show that a system of Josephson junctions coupled via low-resistance tunneling contacts to graphene substrate(s) may effectively operate as a current switching device. The effect is based on the dissipation-driven superconductor-to-insulator quantum phase transition, which happens due to the interplay of the Josephson effect and Coulomb blockade. Coupling to a graphene substrate with gapless...
متن کاملQuantum superconductor-metal transition in a proximity array.
A theory of the zero-temperature superconductor-metal transition is developed for an array of superconductive islands (of size d) coupled via a disordered two-dimensional conductor with the dimensionless conductance g = Planck's over 2 pi/e(2)R(square)>>1. At T = 0 the macroscopically superconductive state of the array with lattice spacing b>>d is destroyed at g<g(c) approximately 0.1ln(2)(b/d)...
متن کاملEnhanced transition temperature in a quantum confined high-Tc superconductor
A slight enhancement of the onset transition temperature Tc has been observed in quantum dots of the high-Tc superconductor yttrium–barium–copper oxide (Y1Ba2Cu3O7−δ). The dots were formed when YBCO particles (diameter ≤600 nm) were exposed to an RF plasma to produce a Coulomb crystal. The plasma damages the particles and causes 20–25 nm sized isolated islands of the correct 1-2-3 stoichiometry...
