Charge transport in superconducting junctions at finite voltages is governed by Andreev reflections, including multiple Andreev reflections, which are processes that enable multiple charge transfer, a hallmark that shot noise can directly…
Superconductivity in the iron-chalcogenide series FeSe-Fe(Te, Se)-FeTe has been restricted to the near neighbor of iron selenide (FeSe), with a general consensus that iron telluride (FeTe) is not superconducting. In this study, we report…
Cosine-shaped bands that occur in DFT-based electronic band structures for MgB2 are further analyzed with calculations along reciprocal directions parallel to the high symmetry G-A direction at regular intervals along G-M. Band degeneracies…
We report muon-spin rotation measurements of the pressure dependence of the oxygen-isotope ($^{16}$O/$^{18}$O) effect on the spin-density wave (SDW) transition in the trilayer Ruddlesden-Popper nickelate Pr$_4$Ni$_3$O$_{10}$. At ambient…
We report the realization of multilayer three-dimensional nanobridge Josephson junctions based on Nb/NbN and Nb/TiN superconducting stacks fabricated using electron-beam lithography and chlorine-based dry etching. In this architecture, a…
Experimental results demonstrate a viable strategy for tuning the superconducting properties of MgB2 through the incorporation of an electroluminescent inhomogeneous phase, revealing an interfacial light-phonon-electron synergistic…
We propose a qubit design based on two parallel superconducting nanowires (i.e., a "Dayem loop qubit"). The inclusion of two nanowires instead of one leads to the Little-Parks effect, which provides an oscillator behavior for the qubit…
Nickelate superconductors provide a valuable new platform for the study of unconventional superconductivity that is complementary to the cuprates. One of the central puzzles about high-temperature superconductors is what factors determine…
The Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) is a powerful instrument to study electronic density of states at surfaces down to atomic scale. Many interesting samples require studying variations as a function of the magnetic field, which is most…
A distinctive identifier of nodal intrinsic topological superconductivity (ITS) would the appearance of an Andreev bound state on crystal surfaces parallel to the nodal axis, in the form of a topological quasiparticle surface band (QSB)…
Despite extensive experimental and theoretical work over several decades, Schmid-Bulgadaev quantum phase transition remains a subject of debate. Here we revisit this problem by performing systematic experiments on low-frequency…
In ultrafast experiments on superconductors, a pump laser pulse often heats up the electronic system and suppresses the density of superfluid electrons. Subsequently, the electrons undergo a cooling process because of electron-phonon…
We address a previously unexplored type of dynamical proximity effect that occurs in s-wave topological superconductor/ferromagnetic insulator (TS/FI) heterostructures. It is predicted that magnons in the FI and the Nambu-Goldstone (NG)…
We investigated the lattice dynamics of the unconventional superconductor LiFeAs using inelastic neutron scattering experiments and density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. By comparing the neutron scattering intensities with…
Motivated by the interplay between 2D and 3D scaling signatures observed in unconventional layered superconductors, we present a systematic Monte Carlo study of the three-dimensional classical XY model with anisotropic in-plane…
We theoretically study surface superconductivity in a nodal-line semimetal by combining a minimal tight-binding model with a layer-resolved Bogoliubov-de Gennes approach. In the normal state, the model realizes a bulk nodal loop and an…
We investigate electron pairing in a super clean kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5 with a residual resistivity ratio (RRR) of 290. By using the dilution-refrigerator-based scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at the Synergetic Extreme Condition…
We develop a linear response theory for the dynamical proximity effect in topological superconductor/ferromagnetic insulator (TS/FI) hybrids. Our approach integrates the nonequilibrium quasiclassical Keldysh-Usadel formalism for the TS with…
In this work, microwave measurements carried out in dielectric-loaded resonators exposed to high magnetic fields are exploited to yield the surface impedance of Nb$_3$Sn superconducting coatings deposited via two different techniques: vapor…
In order to investigate the crossover from the homogeneous behavior to inhomogeneous (percolative) one, the temperature $T$ and magnetic field H dependence of the sheet resistance $R_\square$ have been measured for two-dimensional granular…
