In many situations a BCS-type superconductor will develop an imbalance between the populations of the holelike and electronlike spectral branches. This imbalance suppresses the gap. It has been noted by Gal'perin et al. [Sov. Phys. JETP 54,…

Recent experiments on disordered superconductors find that the superfluid density $n_s(T)$ decreases dramatically and characteristically with disorder, differently from what is expected for a mean order parameter field or BCS, amplitude…

The superconducting pairing instability---as determined by a divergence of the two-particle susceptibility---is obtained in the mean field (BCS) approximation in the thermodynamic limit. The usual practice is to examine this property for a…

Superconducting devices, based on the Cooper pairing of electrons, play an important role in existing and emergent technologies, ranging from radiation detectors to quantum computers. Their performance is limited by spurious quasiparticle…

More than fifty years old "Anderson's theorem" suggests disorder-independent pair-amplitude and critical temperature at low to moderate strength of disorders. In spite of the extension of this paradigm and several subsequent theoretical…

We present a phase diagram as a function of disorder in three-dimensional NbN thin films, as the system enters the critical disorder for the destruction of the superconducting state. The superconducting state is investigated using a…

Superconducting state is achieved through quantum condensation of Cooper pairs which are new types of charge carriers other than single electrons in normal metals. The theory established by Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) in 1957 can…
