Phase slips creation in the thin film in perpendicular magnetic filed with edge superconductivity is studied. These centers are due to thermal activation of the order parameter below superconducting temperature transition leading to the…
The appearance of phase-slip lines, induced by an rf field, was observed experimentally in wide superconducting films in which the destruction of superconductivity by a dc current is associated with the formation of phase-slip lines. The…
A model binary hybrid system composed of a randomly distributed rare-earth ferromagnetic (Gd) part embedded in an s-wave superconducting (Nb) matrix is being manufactured to study the interplay between competing superconducting and…
The interplay between superconductivity and magnetism gives rise to many intriguing and exciting phenomena. In this Letter we report about a novel manifestation of this interplay: a temperature induced phase transition between different…
Under a strong transport current, the induced voltage in superconductor nanomembranes in a magnetic field with submicron inhomogeneity shows a pulse on a certain interval of the magnetic field. It is a manifestation of a wide phase-slip…
The effect of electrostatic gating on metallic elemental superconductors was recently demonstrated in terms of modulation of the switching current and control of the current phase relation in superconducting quantum interferometers. The…
High-transition-temperature (high-Tc) superconductivity develops near antiferromagnetic phases, and it is possible that magnetic excitations contribute to the superconducting pairing mechanism. To assess the role of antiferromagnetism, it…
Superconducting vortices and phase slips are primary mechanisms of dissipation in superconducting, superfluid, and cold atom systems. While the dynamics of vortices is fairly well described, phase slips occurring in quasi-one dimensional…
We study the effect of phase slips in a quasi 1d superconducting channel along which a current flows and report a new phenomenon where an avalanche of phase slips occurs. This limits the critical current in thin films and wires and drives…
In this pedagogical review, we discuss how electrical resistance can arise in superconductors. Starting with the idea of the superconducting order parameter as a condensate wave function, we introduce vortices as topological excitations…
A new class of phenomena discussed in this review is based on interaction between spatially separated, but closely located ferromagnets and superconductors. They are called Ferromagnet-Superconductor Hybrids (FSH). These systems include…
The work reported in my doctoral thesis is an experimental study of vortex dynamics and phase transitions in thin films of type II superconductors using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, low frequency ac susceptibility measurements and…
We report transport studies through Nb-based superconducting meander wires fabricated by focused ion beam (FIB) milling technique. The effect of meandering on quantum transport has been probed experimentally by a direct comparison with the…
The exchange interaction at interfaces between superconductors (SCs) and ferromagnets (FMs) has been a central topic in condensed matter physics for many decades, starting with the prediction of exotic phases such as the…
This paper introduces a new approach for simulating magnetic properties of nanocomposites comprising magnetic particles embedded in a non-magnetic matrix, taking into account the 3D structure of the system in which particles' positions…
We argue that the negative magnetoresistance of superconducting nanowires, which was observed in recent experiments, can be explained by the influence of the external magnetic field on the critical current of the phase slip process. We show…
We have created superconductor-ferromagnet composite films in order to test the enhancement of critical current density, Jc, due to magnetic pinning. We co-sputter the type-II superconductor niobium (Nb) and the low-temperature ferromagnet…
The equilibrium magnetization for layered superconducting films that experience a nonzero component, $H_{\parallel}$, of magnetic field applied parallel to the layers is computed at temperatures and at perpendicular field components in the…
We report a study on the response of superconducitng micro-tracks and quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) to a proximal SMM film. As a test case, Langmuir-Blodgett $Mn_{12}$-ac SMM films have been grown on 2 $\mu$m wide Nb tracks and Nb…
Experimental results on the phase slip process in superconducting lead nanowires are presented under two different experimental conditions: constant applied current or constant voltage. Based on these experiments we established a simple…
