Motivated by a recent experiment [J. W. A. Robinson, J. D. S. Witt and M. G. Blamire, Science, \textbf{329}, 5987 (2010)], we here study the possibility of establishing a long-range spin-triplet supercurrent through an inhomogeneous…
Josephson junctions were fabricated in epitaxial films of cobalt-doped BaFe2As2 on [001]-tilt (La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3 bicrystal substrates. 10m-wide microbridges spanning a 30-degrees-tilted bicrystal grain boundary (BGB bridge) exhibited…
