Not so long ago, thermoelectricity in superconductors was believed to be possible only by breaking explicitly the particle-hole symmetry. Recently, it has been theoretically predicted that a superconducting tunnel junction can develop…
We study impurity scattering in the normal and d-wave superconducting states of line nodal semimetals and show that, due to additional scattering phase space available for impurities on the surface, the quasiparticle interference pattern…
The gap function in unconventional superconductors may vanish at points or lines in momentum space, permitting electronic excitations, termed nodal quasiparticles, to exist at temperatures well below the superconducting transition. In the…
The quantum Hall (QH) effect supports a set of chiral edge states at the boundary of a 2-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) system. A superconductor (SC) contacting these states induces correlation of the quasi-particles in the dissipationless…
The paramagnon contribution to the quasiparticle inelastic scattering rate in disordered superconductors is presented. Using Anderson's exact eigenstate formalism, it is shown that the scattering rate is Stoner enhanced and is further…
The excitations in conventional superconductors, Bogoliubov quasiparticles, are spin-1/2 fermions but their charge is energy-dependent and, in fact, zero at the gap edge. Therefore, in superconductors (unlike normal metals) the spin and…
Electronic transport through nanostructures is greatly affected by the presence of superconducting leads. If the interface between the nanostructure and the superconductors is sufficiently transparent, a dissipationless current…
We calculate the damping of excitations due to four-fermionic interaction in the case of two-dimensional superconductor with nodes in the spectrum. At zero temperature and low frequencies it reveals gapless $\omega^3$ behavior at the nodal…
In this study, a possible non-quasiparticle glue for superconductivity of both conventional and unconventional superconductors is explored in a pure electron picture. It is shown clearly that the moving electrons due to the electromagnetic…
The presence of quasiparticles typically degrades the performance of superconducting microwave circuits. The readout signal can generate non-equilibrium quasiparticles, which lead to excess microwave loss and decoherence. To understand this…
Deploying a recently developed semiclassical theory of quasiparticles in the superconducting state we study the de Haas-van Alphen effect. We find that the oscillations have the same frequency as in the normal state but their amplitude is…
We point out in this short communique, that be it a s-wave or d-wave superconductor, in a non equalibrium situation(i.e. in presence of excess unpolarised/polarised quasi-particles maintained by an injection current) the superconducting gap…
Material inhomogeneities in a superconductor generically lead to broadening of the density of states and to subgap states. The latter are associated with spatial fluctuations of the gap in which quasiparticles can be trapped. Recombination…
As the energy relaxation time of superconducting qubits steadily improves, non-equilibrium quasiparticle excitations above the superconducting gap emerge as an increasingly relevant limit for qubit coherence. We measure fluctuations in the…
We briefly overview our recent results on nonequilibrium interactions between neighboring electrically isolated nanostructures. One of the nanostructures is represented by an externally biased quantum point contact (drive-QPC), which is…
We develop a theory for two quasiparticle-induced decoherence mechanisms of a driven superconducting qubit. In the first mechanism, an existing quasiparticle (QP) tunnels across the qubit's Josephson junction while simultaneously absorbing…
I calculate the effect of interactions among superconducting quasiparticles in two-dimensional(2D) a superconductor at T=0. The strength of the effective interaction among the quasiparticles is essentially given by the screened Coulomb…
The possibility of non-adiabatic electron pumping in the system of three coupled quantum dots attached to the leads is discussed. We have found out that periodical changing of energy level position in the middle quantum dot results in non…
In this work we investigate the spectral and transport properties of a single correlated layer attached to two metallic leads, with particular focus on the low-energy physics. A steady state current is driven across the layer by applying a…
Quasimolecules, which consist of two differently excited atoms in a resonantly excited gas, are considered. The energy of dissociation and typical sizes of such molecules are calculated in the first order of quantum-mechanical perturbation…
