In this paper we extend our earlier analysis of the novel Josephson effect in triplet superconductor--ferromagnet--triplet superconductor (TFT) junctions [B. Kastening \emph{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf{96}}, 047009 (2006)]. In our more…

We study the Josephson current in two types of lateral junctions with spin-orbit coupling and an exchange field. The first system (type 1 junction) consists of superconductors with heavy metal interlayers linked by a ferromagnetic bridge,…
We consider two types of magnetic Josephson junctions~(JJ). They are formed by two singlet superconductors~S and magnetic layers between them so that the JJ is a heterostructure of the S$_{\text{m}}$/n/S$_{\text{m}}$ type,…
We show that a supercurrent carried by spinless singlet Cooper pairs can induce a spin accumulation in the normal metal interlayer of a Josephson junction. This phenomenon occurs when a nonequilibrium spin-energy mode is excited in the…
We show that the fully polarized triplet s-wave component is characterized not only by the spin direction, but also by chirality. Interaction of a polarized triplet component and a singlet one results in creation of triplet Cooper pairs…

We have measured spin-triplet supercurrent in Josephson junctions of the form S/F'/F/F'/S, where S is superconducting Nb, F' is a thin Ni layer with in-plane magnetization, and F is a Ni/[Co/Ni]n multilayer with out-of-plane magnetization.…
