Effects of magnetic impurities on two-band superconductor

Superconductivity 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

I calculated the effect of magnetic impurities on the normal and superconductive properties of a multiband s-wave superconductor by direct solution of the two-band Eliashberg equations. In this way I determined the critical temperature, the values of the superconductive gaps, the shape of the superconductive density of states and other physical quantities that depend on the concentration of magnetic impurities. I found that the gaps and the penetration lengths display an unusual behaviour as a function of temperature. I examine the possibility that the presence of a negative induced gap raises the critical temperature.
