The phase variation of the superconducting gap over the (normal) Fermi surface of the high-temperature superconductors remains a significant unresolved question. Is the phase of the gap constant, does it change sign, or is it perhaps…
We report measurements of the temperature dependence of both in-plane and out-of-plane penetration depths ($\lambda_a$ and $\lambda_c$ respectively) in 2\textit{H}-NbSe$_2$. Measurements were made with a radio-frequency tunnel diode…
We present results of in field directional point contact spectroscopy (DPCS) study in the quaternary borocarbide superconductor YNi2B2C, which is characterized by a highly anisotropic superconducting gap function. For I||a, the…
We report results for the superconducting transition temperature and anisotropic energy gap for pure Niobium based on Eliashberg's equations and electron and phonon band structures computed from density functional theory. The electronic…
We studied nearly optimally Ni-substituted BaFe$_{2-x}$Ni$_x$As$_2$ (BFNA) single crystals with $T_C \approx 18.5$\,K. In irreversible magnetization measurements, we determined the field dependence of the critical-current density and…
The microwave complex surface impedance Z_s of Y(Ni_{1-x}Pt_x)_2B_2C was measured at 0.5 K under magnetic fields H up to 7T. In nominally pure YNi_2B_2C, which is a strongly anisotropic s-wave superconductor, the flux flow resistivity…
Superconductivity-induced changes in the electronic Raman scattering response were observed for the RNi$_2$B$_2$C (R = Y, Lu) system in different scattering geometries. In the superconducting state, 2$\Delta$-like peaks were observed in…
Electron-phonon coupling, i.e., the scattering of lattice vibrations by electrons and vice versa, is ubiquitous in solids and can lead to emergent ground states such as superconductivity and charge-density wave order. Strong coupling of…
Choi et al. [Phys. Rev. B 66, 020513 (2002)] recently presented first principles calculations of the electron-phonon coupling and superconductivity in MgB2, emphasizing the importance of anisotropy and anharmonicity. We point out that (1)…
We study the polarization-dependent electronic Raman response of untwinned YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ superconductors employing a tight-binding band structure with anisotropic hopping matrix parameters and a superconducting gap with a…
Phonon or electron mediated weak BCS attraction is enough to have high critical temperature if a van Hove anomaly is at work. This could apply to electron doped compounds and also to compounds with CuO$_2$ planes overdoped in holes, where…
We performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on electron-doped high-Tc superconductor Pr0.89LaCe0.11CuO4 to study the anisotropy of the superconducting gap. The observed momentum dependence is basically consistent…
We use inelastic neutron scattering to show that superconductivity in electron-underdoped NaFe0.985Co0.015As induces a dispersive sharp resonance near Er1 = 3:25 meV and a broad dis- persionless mode at Er2 = 6 meV. However, similar…
Electron-phonon interaction in copper oxide superconductors is still enigmatic. Strong coupling for certain optic phonons is now well established experimentally, but theoretical understanding is challenging. Scattering of electrons near the…
Superconducting properties of hypothetical simple hexagonal CaB2 are studied using the fully anisotropic Eliashberg formalism based on electronic and phononic structures and electron-phonon interactions which are obtained from ab initio…
It is shown within the weak-coupling model that the macroscopic superconducting anisotropy for materials with the gap varying on the Fermi surface cannot be characterized by a single number, unlike the case of clean materials with isotropic…
We report an inelastic neutron scattering investigation of phonons with energies up to 159 meV in the conventional superconductor YNi$_2$B$_2$C. Using the SWEEP mode, a newly developed time-of-flight technique involving the continuous…
We present a new measurement method which can be used to image gap nodal structure of superconductors whose pairing symmetry is under debate. This technique utilizes a high quality factor microwave resonance involving the sample of…
We suggest that the phonon dispersion in cuprates becomes strongly anisotropic due to interaction with spin waves; moreover the phonon dispersion becomes singular along $|k_x|=|k_y|$ directions. This would allow more electrons to form…
The study of the anisotropic superconductor MgB2 using a combination of scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy reveals two distinct energy gaps at Delta1=2.3 meV and Delta2=7.1 meV. Different spectral weights of the partial…
