Reducing the energy inefficiency of conventional CMOS-based computing devices -- which rely on logically irreversible gates to process information -- remains both a fundamental engineering challenge and a practical social challenge of…
In the present work, we report the synthesis of Pb-Bi alloy with enhanced Tc of up to 9K, which is higher than that of Pb. The alloy is synthesized via a solid-state reaction route in the vacuum-encapsulated quartz tube at 7000C in an…
Majorana fermions, exotic particles with potential applications in quantum computing, have garnered significant interest in condensed matter physics. The Kitaev model serves as a fundamental framework for investigating the emergence of…
Quantum Griffiths singularity (QGS) has been experimentally observed in a range of two-dimensional (2D) superconducting systems. Although it is theoretically suggested that the QGS also exists in three-dimensional (3D) superconductors,…
The electrical transport properties of Pb$_x$(TiO$_2$)$_{1-x}$ ($x$ being the Pb volume fraction and ranging from $\sim$0.45 to $\sim$0.69) granular films are investigated experimentally. The charging energy of the Pb granules is reduced to…
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) relates to the interaction between an electron's motion and its spin, and is ubiquitous in solid-state systems. Although the effect of SOC in normal-state phenomena has been extensively studied, its role in…
We study the spontaneous chiral surface current circulating in a three-dimensional disk of a chiral superconductor (SC) utilizing the quasiclassical Eilenberger theory. We obtain spatial profiles of the chiral current for both a ($d_{zx} +…
The influence of annealing on the superconducting properties of eutectic high-entropy alloy NbScTiZr was examined by measuring magnetization, electrical resistivity, and zero-field specific heat. Additionally, the extent of lattice strain…
A comprehensive study of the vortex phases and vortex dynamics is presented for a recently discovered high-temperature superconductor ThH$_{10}$ with $\textit{T}$$_C$ = 153 K at 170 GPa. The obtained results strongly suggest a quasi…
We continue our previous studies of the shocks in the lossy Josephson transmission line (JTL). The paper consists of two parts. In the first part we analyse the scattering of the "sound' (small amplitude small wave vector harmonic wave) on…
We consider the discrete series-connected lossy Josephson transmission line, constructed from Josephson junctions, capacitors and resistors (one-dimensional array of Josephson junctions). We derive equations describing pump, signal, and…
We analytically study the localized running waves in the discrete Josephson transmission lines (JTL), constructed from Josephson junctions (JJ) and capacitors. The quasi-continuum approximation reduces calculation of the running wave…
We analytically study shock wave in the Josephson transmission line (JTL) in the presence of ohmic dissipation. When ohmic resistors shunt the Josephson junctions (JJ) or are introduced in series with the ground capacitors the shock is…
We study switching current distributions in superconducting nanostrips using theoretical models and numerical simulations. Switching current distributions are commonly measured in experiments and may provide a window into the microscopic…
This article reports the successful synthesis of single crystalline two-dimensional thin flakes of NbSe$_2$. The XRD pattern of the grown crystal ensured its crystallization in a single phase with a hexagonal structure. The EDAX endorsed…
The Bi${-}$Ni binary system has been of interest due to possible unconventional superconductivity aroused therein, such as time-reversal symmetry breaking in Bi/Ni bilayers or the coexistence of superconductivity and ferromagnetism in…

The quasi-one-dimensional Chevrel phases, A$_2$Mo$_6$Se$_6$ (A = Tl, In, K, Rb, Cs), are of interest due to their atypical electronic properties. The Tl and In analogues undergo a superconducting transition whereas the alkali metal…
Bilayers of two-dimensional van der Waals materials that lack an inversion centre can show a novel form of ferroelectricity, where certain stacking arrangements of the two layers lead to an interlayer polarization. Under an external…
The element boron has long been central to two-dimensional superconducting materials, and numerous studies have demonstrated the presence of superconductivity in various boron-based structures. Recent work introduced a new variant: Bilayer…
