Josephson effect through an isotropic magnetic molecule.

چکیده
We study the Josephson effect through a quantum dot magnet whose spin is isotropic and which is coupled to the dot electron spin via exchange coupling. We calculate the Andreev levels and the supercurrent and examine the intertwined effect of the exchange coupling, Kondo correlation, and superconductivity. The former suppresses Kondo correlations, which triggers phase transitions from the 0 to the pi state, but strong antiferromagnetic coupling restores the 0 state. The asymmetric phase diagram in the exchange coupling suggests that the coupling sign could be determined in experiments.

Superconductivity: The Meissner Effect, Persistent Currents and the Josephson Effects
Several phenomena associated with superconductivity are observed in three experiments carried out in a liquid helium cryostat. The transition to the superconducting state of several bulk samples of Type I and II superconductors is observed in measurements of the exclusion of magnetic field (the Meisner effect) as the temperature is gradually reduced by the flow of cold gas from boiling helium. ...

Differences in nuclear isotropic magnetic shieldings give rise to the chemical shifts measured in NMR experiments. In contrast to existing NMR experimental techniques, quantum chemical methods are capable of calculating isotropic magnetic shieldings not just at nuclei, but also at any point in the space surrounding a molecule. Using s-trans-1,3-butadiene, ethane, ethene, and ethyne as examples,...

The macroscopic quantum interference effects in ballistic Josephson microstructures are investigated. The studied system consists of four bulk superconductors (terminals) which are weakly coupled through the mesoscopic rectangular normal metal (two dimensional electron gas). We show that nonlocal electrodynamics of ballistic systems leads to specific current-phase relations for the mesoscopic m...

Josephson coupling between an s- and d-wave superconductor through a 50 nm thick Ca1-xSrxCuO2 antiferromagnetic layer was observed for the hybrid Nb/Au/Ca1-xSrxCuO2/YBa2Cu3O7-delta heterostructures and investigated as a function of temperature, magnetic field, and applied millimeter-wave electromagnetic radiation. The magnetic field dependence of the supercurrent I(c)(H) exhibits anomalously ra...
