The coherent mixing of the current states in the superconducting weak link subject to a Josephson phase difference $\phi$ and subject to an external transport current in the banks is one of the aims of this work. At $\phi=\pi $ the nonlocal…
A superconducting tunnel junction is used to directly extract quasiparticles from one of the leads of a single-Cooper-pair-transistor. The consequent reduction in quasiparticle density causes a lower rate of quasiparticle tunneling onto the…
Recent theoretical work highlighted unique properties of superconducting altermagnets, including the wealth of topologically non-trivial phases as well as their potential uses in spintronic applications. Given that no intrinsically…
In this work we investigate the spin-dependent transport through a double quantum dot embedded in a ferromagnetic tunnel junction and side attached to a topological superconducting nanowire hosting Majorana zero-energy modes. We focus on…
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…
A common path to superconducting spintronics, Majorana fermions, and topologically-protected quantum computing relies on spin-triplet superconductivity. While naturally occurring spin-triplet pairing is elusive and even common spin-triplet…
Selected problems of fundamental importance for spintronics and spin-polarized transport are reviewed, some of them with a special emphasis on their applications in quantum computing and coherent control of quantum dynamics. The role of the…
Ferromagnetic half-metal Co$_2$CrAl films and tunnel contacts Co$_2$CrAl - insulator (I) - Pb are fabricated and investigated. It is found that the normalized differential conductivity $\sigma ^{\rm FS} $ of such tunnel junctions with low…
Superconductivity mediated by spin fluctuations in weak and nearly ferromagnetic metals is studied close to the zero-temperature magnetic transition. We solve analytically the Eliashberg equations for p-wave pairing and obtain the normal…
We studied the diffusion and the relaxation of the polarized quasiparticle spins in superconductors. To that end, quasiparticles of polarized spins were injected through an interface of a mesoscopic superconducting Al wire in proximity…
It has been shown that tunneling of spin-polarized electrons through a semiconductor barrier is accompanied by generation of an electric current in the plane of the interfaces. The direction of this interface current is determined by the…
The superconducting equivalent of giant magnetoresistance, involves placing a thin-film superconductor between two ferromagnetic layers. A change of magnetization-alignment in such a superconducting spin-valve from parallel (P) to…
We investigate spin dependent transport in hybrid superconductor(S)--normal-metal(N)--ferromagnet(F) structures under conditions of proximity effect. We demonstrate the feasibility of the absolute spin-valve effect for a certain interval of…
Diodes are key elements for electronics, optics, and detection. The search for a material combination providing the best performances for the required application is continuously ongoing. Here, we present a superconducting spintronic tunnel…
Ballistic Josephson junctions are studied in the presence of a spin-splitting field and spin-orbit coupling. A generic expression for the quasi-classical Green's function is obtained and with its help we analyze several aspects of the…
The transport properties between ferromagnets and high-Tc superconductors are investigated in La0.67Sr0.33MnO3/YBa2Cu3O7-d (LSMO/YBCO)junctions in the geometry of cross-strip lines. The conductance spectra show zero-bias conductance peaks…

We demonstrate that spin PN junctions-magnetic semiconductor homojunctions with spin splitting-induced band offsets-fundamentally redefine carrier transport via spin-dependent recom bination probabilities. By integrating this mechanism into…
We study spin transport through a normal metal-spin superconductor junction. A spin-flip reflection is demonstrated at the interface, where a spin-up electron incident from the normal metal can be reflected as a spin-down electron and the…
Magnetic $p$-$n$ junction diodes are fabricated to investigate spin-polarized electron transport. The injection of spin-polarized electrons in a semiconductor is achieved by driving a current from a ferromagnetic injector (Fe), into a bulk…
