The influence of spin - dependent phases of tunneling electrons on the conductance of a point ferromagnet / isolator / superconductor contact
The Andreev reflection probability for a ferromag-net/isolator/superconductor (FIS) contact at the arbitrary spin-dependent amplitudes of the electron waves transmitted through and reflected from the potential barrier is found. It is shown that Andreev reflection probabilities of electron and hole excitations in the FIS contact are different. The energy levels of Andreev bound states are found....
متن کاملTHz SIS mixers with normal-metal Al tuning circuits
Nb-based superconductor–insulator–superconductor (SIS) mixers with Nb tuning circuits have demonstrated good results up to the Nb gap frequency. Above the gap frequency the performance is expected to degrade quickly because RF loss in Nb becomes significant. In this paper we present the results of an effort to extend Nb-based SIS mixers to THz frequencies by employing lower-loss normal-metal Al...
متن کاملInvestigating Fluid Mixing in Electro-Osmotic Flow Through Passive Micro-Mixers Having Square and Triangle Barriers
Objective: In this article, a numerical study is conducted on mixing of two fluids in the liquid phase with two different concentrations of a chemical species in the electro-osmotic flow. Methods: The base liquid is an electrolyte which flows in a two-dimensional micro-channel having electrically charged walls. Lorentz electric force, which is used as stimulating flow factor, is created by appl...

متن کاملDevelopment of a 385 - 500 GHz SIS Mixer for ALMA Band 8
In this paper, we report on the design and experimental results of a fix-tuned Superconductor-Insulator-Superconductor (SIS) mixer for Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) band 8 (385-500GHz) receivers. Nb-based SIS junctions of a current density of 10kA/cm and one micrometer size (fabricated with a two-step lift-off process) are employed to accomplish the ALMA receiver specifica...
