Predicted electric field induced surface magnetization of vortex phase of superconductors

Superconductivity 2020-04-30 v5

Abstract

We predict a new effect in condensed matter surface magnetization of the vortex phase of a superconductor induced by electric field. The magnetized superconductor should be one of the plates of a plane capacitor on which a voltage has to be applied. Applying alternating voltage to the capacitor, electrostatic induction leads to oscillations of the magnetic moment which has to be measured by electromotive force inducted in a detector coil. The derived explicit formula for the magnetization contains the effective mass of Cooper pairs and a systematic investigation of the predicted magnetization will lead to a creation of an effective Cooper pair mass spectroscopy. For cleaved superconductors this effective mass is a property of the bulk material.
