We report measurements of the in-plane London penetration depth $\lambda$ in single crystals of the $\alpha$-PdBi$_{2}$ superconductor --- the $\alpha$-phase counterpart of the putative topological superconductor $\beta$-PdBi$_{2}$, down to…
A model is presented for two-dimensional superconductivity at semiconductor-on-metal interfaces mediated by Coulomb interactions between electronically-active interface charges in the semiconductor and screening charges in the metal. The…
Using a radio frequency tunnel diode oscillator technique, we measured the temperature dependence of the in-plane London penetration depth $\Delta\lambda_{ab}(T)$ in Fe$_{1+y}$(Te$_{1-x}$Se$_{x})$ single crystals, down to temperatures as…
Recently, compressed H$_2$S has been shown to become superconducting at 203 K under a pressure of 155 GPa. One might expect fluctuations to dominate at such temperatures. Using the magnetisation critical current, we determine the…
By applying a hydrodynamic representation of non-relativistic scalar electrodynamics to the superconducting order parameter, we predict a negative (attractive) pressure between planar superconducting bodies. For conventional superconductors…
The doping dependence of the superfluid density, r_s, of high-Tc superconductors is usually considered in the context of the Uemura relation, namely Tc proportional to rs, which is generally assumed to apply in the underdoped regime. We…
We show that in anisotropic superconductors, falling at finite temperature into the 3D-XY- and at zero temperature into the 2D-XY-QSI universality class, the isotope effects on transition temperature, specific heat and magnetic penetration…
Implanting fully polarized low energy muons on the nanometer scale beneath the surface of a superconductor in the Meissner state enabled us to probe the evanescent magnetic field profile B(z)(0<z<=200nm measured from the surface). All the…
A two-band model with repulsive interband coupling and interband {\it transport} (potential) scattering is considered to elucidate their effects on material properties. In agreement with previous work, we find that the bands order…
We report measurements of the oxygen isotope effect (OIE) on the in-plane penetration depth \lambda_{ab}(0) in underdoped La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4} single crystals. A highly sensitive magnetic torque sensor with a resolution of \Delta \tau ~…
We performed phase-sensitive terahertz (0.12 - 1.2 THz) transmission measurements of Ga-enriched layers in silicon. Below the superconducting transition, T_{c} = 6.7 K, we find clear signatures of the formation of a superconducting…
Since the recently reported giant isotope effect on T* [1] could be consistently explained within an anharmonic spin-charge-phonon interaction model, we consider here the role played by stripe formation on the superconducting properties…
In- and out-of-plane magnetic penetration depths were measured in three iron-based pnictide superconducting systems. All studied samples of both 122 systems show a robust power-law behavior, $\lambda (T) T^n$, with the sample-dependent…
We report the influence on the superconducting critical temperature $T_c$ in doped SrTiO$_3$ of the substitution of the natural $^{16}$O atoms by the heavier isotope $^{18}$O. We observe that for a wide range of doping this substitution…
We have carried out measurements of the pressure dependence to 1.2 GPa of the oxygen isotope effect on $T_c$ in the high-$T_c$ superconductor YBa$_2$Cu$_4$O$_8$ using a clamp cell in a SQUID magnetometer. This compound lies close to, but…
For an s-wave superconductor/semiconductor/ferromagnetic-insulator structure, the proximity effect can induce the energy gap in the semiconductor rather than the superconducting pair potential of its microscope Hamiltonian. As a result, it…
The in-plane magnetic penetration depth, $\lambda (T)$, was measured down to 0.4 K in single crystals of electron-doped superconductors, Pr$_{1.85}$Ce$_{0.15}$CuO$_{4-\delta}$ (PCCO) and Nd$_{1.85}$Ce$_{0.15}$CuO$_{4-\delta}$ (NCCO). In…
We present exact numerical calculations of supercurrent density, inductance, and impurity-induced flux noise of cylindrical superconducting wires in the nonlocal Pippard regime, which occurs when the Pippard coherence length is larger than…
The density functional theory for superconductors developed in the preceding article [cond-mat/0408685] is applied to the calculation of superconducting properties of several elemental metals. In particular, we present results for the…
The exotic superconductors, defined as those which follow the phenomenological trend of Uemura (Tc approximately proportional to penetration depth^-2), presently constitute the most broad and general class of superconductors which can…
