We report zero-field (ZF) and transverse-field (TF) muon-spin rotation/relaxation ($\mu$SR) measurements on superconducting Li$_{0.95}$FeAs ($T_{\rm c}\simeq16.0$ K) grown by a high-pressure self-flux method. The ZF-$\mu$SR data show no…
We study a four-fold symmetric dispersion relation of a quantum material, which exhibits a single high-order Van Hove singularity of X$_9$ type at the Fermi energy. First, we analyze in detail its form, type and density of states when the…
An interaction between ferromagnetic and superconducting orders, to be realized in a two dimensional ferromagnetic superconductor, is proposed obeying necessary symmetry principles. This interaction allows us to formulate a duality, similar…
Kagome superconductors AV$_3$Sb$_5$ (A=K, Rb, Cs) have sparked considerable interest due to the presence of several intertwined symmetry-breaking phases within a single material. Interestingly, in a recent experiment, magnetic hysteresis…
Superconductivity in a partially filled flat band presents a vexing conceptual hurdle because the absence of a Fermi surface precludes a weak-coupling regime where one can extend insights from the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer picture of a…
The supercurrent diode effect (SDE), characterized by unequal critical currents in opposite directions, has been observed with or without magnetic fields, yet mechanisms enabling zero-field SDE without explicit symmetry breaking remain…
The current-driven resistive transition is central to superconducting single-photon detectors, transition-edge sensors, and fluxonic devices. Depending on sample uniformity, dimensions, and heat removal, it can be driven by phase-slip…
The new family of superconducting nickelates centered around La$_{3}$Ni$_{2}$O$_{7}$ possesses attractive features, such as the high transition temperature and the presence of an antiferromagnetic ground state at ambient pressure,…
In superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs), the superconducting diode effect may be generated by interference of multiple harmonic components in the current-phase relationships (CPRs) of different branches forming SQUID loops.…
Experiments show that the Weyl semimetal PtBi$_2$ hosts unconventional superconductivity in its topological surface states. Hence, the material is a candidate for intrinsic topological superconductivity. Measurements indicate nodal gaps in…
We study superconductivity and superfluid weight of the two-dimensional $\alpha$-$\mathcal{T}_3$ lattice with on-site asymmetries, hosting an isolated quasi-flat band with tunable bandwidth via a parameter $\alpha$. Within a mean-field…
We investigate the Josephson coupling between two superconducting electrodes connected by a ferromagnetic racetrack hosting a Bloch-like domain wall (DW). We show that the interplay between superconductivity and the DW leads to highly…
We theoretically investigate charge transport in a junction between a conventional superconductor and a V$_2$O-based altermagnet exhibiting distinctive spin-split quasi-one-dimensional Fermi surfaces. The altermagnet is described by a…
Observing the structure of quantized vortices can provide evidence for the pairing nature of a superfluid or superconductor and pinpoint its order parameter. Spin-triplet superfluid $^3$He supports a variety of vortices, calculated and…
Unconventional superconductivity (SC) characterized by multi-fermion orderings has attracted substantial attention. However, previous studies have largely focused on 2D systems or 3D systems with effective 2D symmetries. Here, we…
The recent discovery of high-$T_c$ superconductivity in pressurized and thin film nickelates is nowadays one of the most relevant and active topics in solid-state physics. The origin of superconductivity together with the relevance of…
We explore the molecular beam epitaxy synthesis of superconducting aluminum thin films grown on c-plane sapphire substrates at cryogenic temperatures of 6 K and compare their behavior with films synthesized at room temperature. We…
Superconducting thin-films are central to the operation of many kinds of quantum sensors and quantum computing devices: Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs), Travelling-Wave Parametric Amplifiers (TWPAs), Qubits, and Spin-based Quantum…
Unconventional superconductivity is generally expected to be strongly suppressed by nonmagnetic disorder, as captured by Abrikosov--Gor'kov (AG) theory. However, several materials, including transition metal dichalcogenides, exhibit…
An antidot-pinned vortex in a three-dimensional topological insulator-superconductor platform hosts a Majorana zero mode (MZM). However, numerous Caroli-de Gennes-Matricon (CdGM) states coexist with it. We develop a general theory to study…
