The Ruderman--Kittel--Kasuya--Yosida (RKKY) interaction governs the coupling between localized spins and is strongly affected by the environment in which these spins reside. In superconductors, this interaction becomes long-ranged and…
A novel class of antiferromagnets, dubbed altermagnets, exhibit a non-relativistically spin-split band structure reminiscent of $d$-wave superconductors, despite the absence of net magnetization. This unique characteristic enables…
We report theoretical results for the electronic contribution to thermal and electrical transport for chiral superconductors belonging to even or odd-parity E$_1$ and E$_2$ representations of the tetragonal and hexagonal point groups.…
Studies of the magnetic interference of sandwich-type Josephson junctions in which perpendicular or oblique magnetic fields are applied to the junction plane have received less attention than those where the applied magnetic fields are…
Superconducting nanowire cryotrons (nTrons) are expected to be used as interfaces for super-high-performance hybrid devices in which superconductor and semiconductor circuits are combined. However, nTrons are still under development, and…
Magnetic impurities in superconductors are of increasing interest due to emergent Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states and Majorana zero modes for fault-tolerant quantum computation. However, a direct relationship between the YSR multiple states…
We theoretically study first and second-order optical responses in a transition metal dichalcogenide monolayer with distinct trivial, nodal, and time-reversal invariant topological superconducting (TRITOPS) phases. We show that the…

The essential building blocks of cuprate superconductors are two-dimensional CuO$_2$ sheets interspersed with charge reservoir layers. In bilayer cuprates, two closely spaced CuO$_2$ sheets are separated by a larger distance from the…
As an empirical tool in materials science and engineering, the iconic phase diagram owes its robustness and practicality to the topological characteristics rooted in the celebrated Gibbs phase law (F = C - P + 2). When crossing the phase…
The $j = 3/2$ fermions in cubic crystals or cold atomic gases can form Cooper pairs in both singlet ($J = 0$) and unconventional quintet ($J = 2$) $s$-wave states. Our study utilizes analytical field theory to examine fluctuations in these…
Fermionic superfluidity with a nontrivial Cooper-pairing, beyond the conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer state, is a captivating field of study in quantum many-body systems. In particular, the search for superconducting states with…
The recent discovery of possible high temperature superconductivity in single crystals of $La_3Ni_2O_7$ under pressure renews the interest in research on nickelates. The DFT calculations reveal that both $d_{z^2}$ and $d_{x^2-y^2}$ orbitals…
The supercurrent field effect is experimentally realized in various nano-scale devices, based on the superconductivity suppression by external electric fields being effective for confined systems. In spite of intense research, a microscopic…
In the standard mean-field treatment of superconductors, the electron-electron interactions are assumed to be written in terms of local density operators. However, more general interactions, such as pair-hopping interactions, may exist or…

Iron-based superconductor Sr$_2$VFeAsO$_3$ is composed of alternate stacking of a superconducting FeAs layer and an insulating vanadium-oxide layer with a perovskite-type structure. Electronic orders stemming from the spin and orbital…
Effective computational search holds great potential for aiding the discovery of High-Temperature Superconductors (HTSs), especially given the lack of systematic methods for their discovery. Recent progress has been made in this area with…
In this work, we establish a theoretical analysis of the emergence of layer-contrasted Nernst response perpendicular to the direction of the temperature gradient in twisted moir\'{e} layers, called layer Nernst effect (LNE). This phenomenon…
We theoretically study the low-lying collective modes of an even-parity spin-singlet superconducting bilayer, where strong spin-orbit coupling leads to a closely competing odd-parity pairing state. We develop a gauge-invariant theory for…
