In- and out-of-plane magnetic penetration depths were measured in three iron-based pnictide superconducting systems. All studied samples of both 122 systems show a robust power-law behavior, $\lambda (T) T^n$, with the sample-dependent…

The London penetration depth, $\lambda(T)$, has been measured in several single crystals of Ba(Fe$_{0.93}$Co$_{0.07}$)$_2$As$_2$. Thermodynamic, electromagnetic, and structural characterization measurements confirm that these crystals are…

The London penetration depth plays a key role in determining and uncovering many properties of a superconductor, including homogeneity, anisotropy, isotope effects, importance of quantum and thermal fluctuations, and facets of the nature of…

We investigate $T_c$ and magnetic penetration depth $\lambda (T)$ near the superconductor-metal quantum phase transition in overdoped $La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4}$ films. Both $T_c$ and superfluid density $n_s$, $\propto \lambda^{-2}$, decrease…

The superconducting penetration depth, $\lambda(T)$, has been measured in RFeAsO$_{0.9}$F$_{0.1}$ (R=La,Nd) single crystals (R-1111). In Nd-1111, we find an upturn in $\lambda(T)$ upon cooling and attribute it to the paramagnetism of the Nd…

Current theories of high-temperature superconductivity in flat-band systems predict a linear dependence of the transition temperature on the attractive interaction, $T_c(U) = c|U|$. However, neither the value of $c$ nor the full nonlinear…
