Conventional $s$-wave superconductors repel external magnetic flux. However, a recent experiment [A. Di Bernardo et al., Phys. Rev. X \textbf{5}, 041021 (2015)] has tailored the electromagnetic response of superconducting correlations via…
The coupling of a superconductor to a different material often results in a system with unconventional superconducting properties. A conventional superconductor is a perfect diamagnet expelling magnetic fields out of its volume, a…
Theoretical explanation of the Meissner effect involves proportionality between current density and vector potential [1], which has many deep consequences. Amongst them, one can speculate that superconductors in a magnetic field "find an…
In preceding papers the author proposed a new mechanism of Cooper pair formation that follows within an extended Heisenberg model. The new mechanism operates in narrow, partly filled "superconducting" energy bands of special symmetry and…
When both inversion and time-reversal symmetries are broken, the critical current of a superconductor can be nonreciprocal. In this work we show that in certain classes of two-dimensional superconductors with antisymmetric spin-orbit…
Applying the London theory we study curved vortices produced by an external current near and parallel to the surface of a type II superconductor. By minimizing the energy functional we find the contour describing the hard core of the flux…
Dissipative-free electric current flow is one of the most fascinating and practically important property of superconductors. Theoretical consideration of the charge carriers flow in infinitely long rectangular slab of superconductor in the…
Alfven's theorem states that in a perfectly conducting fluid magnetic field lines move with the fluid without dissipation. When a metal becomes superconducting in the presence of a magnetic field, magnetic field lines move from the interior…
The effect of smooth inhomogeneities near a superconductor boundary on the magnetic penetration depth $\lambda$ is studied with emphasis on the proximity-induced spatial dependence of the Cooper pair amplitude. The influence of surface pair…
The Meissner effect is one of the defining properties of superconductivity, with a conventional superconductor completely repelling an external magnetic field. In contrast to this diamagnetic behavior, odd-frequency superconducting pairing…
We propose a mechanism which can generate supercurrents in spin-orbit coupled superconductors with charged magnetic inclusions. The basic idea is that through spin-orbit interaction, the in-plane electric field near the edge of each…
The Meissner effect for superconductors in spacetimes with torsion is revisited. Two new physical interpretations are presented. The first considers the Landau-Ginzburg theory yields a new symmetry-breaking vacuum depending on torsion. In…
We examine the long-wavelength current response in anisotropic superconductors and show how the field-dependence of the Meissner penetration length can be used to detect the structure of the order parameter. Nodes in the excitation gap lead…
The common wisdom that the phonon mechanism of electron pairing in the weak-coupling Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductors leads to conventional s-wave Cooper pairs is revised. An inevitable anisotropy of sound velocity in…
We investigate Meissner effect in normal metal/superconductor junctions where the interface is spin-active. We find that orbital magnetic susceptibility of the normal metal shows highly nontrivial behaviors. In particular, the magnetic…
Superconductors, ideally diamagnetic when in the Meissner state, can also exhibit paramagnetic behavior due to trapped magnetic flux. In the absence of pinning such paramagnetic response is weak, and ceases with increasing sample thickness.…
Understanding the nature of Cooper pairs is essential to describe the properties of superconductors. The original proposal of Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer (BCS) was based on electrons pairing with same energy and zero center-of-mass…
Magnetically mediated Cooper pairing is generally regarded as a key to establish the unified mechanism of unconventional superconductivity. One crucial evidence is the neutron spin resonance arising in the superconducting state, which is…
The superconducting state starts to collapse when the externally applied magnetic field exceeds the Meissner-Ochsenfeld critical field, Bc,MO, which in type-I superconductors is the thermodynamic critical field, while in type-II…
We consider a type I superconducting body that contains one or more holes in its interior that undergoes a transition between normal and superconducting states in the presence of a magnetic field. We argue that unlike other thermodynamic…
