Meissner effect in diffusive normalmetal / d-wave superconductor junctions
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Meissner effect in diffusive normal metal / insulator / d-wave superconductor junctions is studied theoretically in the framework of the Usadel equation under the generalized boundary condition. The effect of midgap Andreev resonant states (MARS) formed at the interface of d-wave superconductor is taken into account. It is shown that the formation of MARS suppresses the susceptibility of the diffusive normal metal.

Theory of the Josephson effect in unconventional superconducting junctions with diffusive barriers
We study theoretically the Josephson effect in junctions based on unconventional superconductors with diffusive barriers, using the quasiclassical Green’s function formalism. Generalized boundary conditions at junction interfaces applicable to unconventional superconductors are derived by calculating a matrix current within the circuit transport theory. Applying these boundary conditions, we ha...

We study spin dependent phonomena in superconducting junctions in both ballistic and diffusive regimes. For ballistic junctions we study both ferromagnet / sand d-wave superconductor junctions and two dimensional electron gas / s-wave superconductor junctions with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. It is shown that the exchange field alway suppresses the conductance while the Rashba spin-orbit couplin...

Resonant proximity effect in the normal metal/insulator/diffusive ferromagnet/insulator/swave and d-wave superconductor N/I/DF/I/S junctions is studied for various regimes by solving the Usadel equation with the generalized boundary conditions. Conductance of the junction and the density of states in the DF layer are calculated as a function of the insulating barrier heights at the interfaces, ...

متن کاملCircuit theory of unconventional superconductor junctions.
We extend the circuit theory of superconductivity to cover transport and proximity effect in mesoscopic systems that contain unconventional superconductor junctions. The approach fully accounts for zero-energy Andreev bound states forming at the surface of unconventional superconductors. As a simple application, we investigate the transport properties of a diffusive normal metal in series with ...
