چکیده

We calculate the tunneling conductance spectra of a ferromagnetic metal / insulator / triplet superconductor from the reflection amplitudes using the Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk (BTK) formula. For the triplet superconductor, we assume one special p-wave order parameter, having line nodes, and two two dimensional f -wave order parameters with line nodes, breaking the time reversal symmetry. Also we examine nodeless pairing potentials. The evolution of the spectra with the exchange potential depends solely on the topology of the gap. The weak Andreev reflection within the ferromagnet results in the suppression of the tunneling conductance and eliminates the resonances due to the anisotropy of the pairing potential. The tunneling spectra splits asymmetrically with respect to E = 0 under the influence of an external magnetic field. The results can be used to distinguish between the possible candidate pairing states of the superconductor Sr2RuO4.

We study the Josephson effect in chiral p-wave superconductor/diffusive normal metal DN /chiral p-wave superconductor CP/DN/CP junctions using quasiclassical Green’s function formalism with proper boundary conditions. The px+ ipy-wave symmetry of superconducting order parameter is chosen which is believed to be the pairing state in Sr2RuO4. We show that the superconducting pair amplitude induce...

Odd Triplet Superconductivity and Related Phenomena in Superconductor-Ferromagnet Structures

We consider novel unusual effects in superconductor-ferromagnet (S/F) structures. In particular we analyze the triplet component (TC) of the condensate generated in those systems.This component is odd in frequency and even in the momentum, which makes it insensitive to non-magnetic impurities. If the exchange field is not homogeneous in the system the triplet component is not destroyed even by ...

Josephson effect in multi-terminal superconductor-ferromagnet junctions coupled via triplet components

On the basis of the Usadel equation we study a multi-terminal Josephson junction. This junction is composed by “magnetic” superconductors Sm which have singlet pairing and are separated from the normal n wire by spin filters so that the Josephson coupling is caused only by fully polarized triplet components. We show that there is no interaction between triplet Cooper pairs with antiparallel tot...

Manifestation of the odd-frequency spin-triplet pairing state in diffusive ferromagnet/superconductor junctions

Using the quasiclassical Green’s function formalism, we study the influence of the odd-frequency spin-triplet superconductivity on the local density of states LDOS in a diffusive ferromagnet DF attached to a superconductor. Various possible symmetry classes in a superconductor are considered which are consistent with the Pauli’s principle: even-frequency spin-singlet even-parity ESE state, even...
