In s-wave systems, it has been theoretically shown that a ferromagnetic film hosting a skyrmion can induce a bound state embedded in the opposite-spin continuum. In this work, we consider a case of skyrmion-induced state in a p-wave…

A magnetic impurity on a superconducting substrate induces in-gap Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound states, whose intricate spatial structure crucially influences the possibilities of engineering collective impurity states. By means of a…

Magnetic superconductors define a broad class of strongly correlated materials in which superconductivity may coexist with either localized or itinerant long-range magnetic order. In this work we consider a multiband model of a disordered…

We consider a superconducting film exchange-coupled to a close-by chiral magnetic layer and study how magnetic skyrmions can induce the formation of Majorana bound states (MBS) in the superconductor. Inspired by a proposal by Yang et al.…

A magnetic impurity on a superconductor induces Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound states, detected by tunneling spectroscopy as long-lived quasiparticle excitations inside the superconducting gap. Coupled YSR states constitute basic elements to…

We develop a quasi-classical theory for the superconducting proximity effect in a ballistic ferromagnetic layer in contact with a d-wave superconductor. In agreement with recent experiments we find that the density of states oscillate…

Broken symmetry states characterizing density waves of higher angular momentum in correlated electronic systems are intriguing objects. In the scheme of characterization by angular momentum, conventional charge and spin density waves…

Superconductor-Ferromagnet (SF) heterostructures are of interest due to numerous phenomena related to the spin-dependent interaction of Cooper pairs with the magnetization. Here we address the effects of a magnetic insulator on the density…

Magnetic impurities on superconductors induce discrete bound levels inside the superconducting gap, known as Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states. YSR levels are fully spin-polarized such that the tunneling between YSR states depends on their…

Magnetic adsorbates on superconductors induce local bound states within the superconducting gap. These Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (\YSR) states decay slowly away from the impurity compared to atomic orbitals, even in 3d bulk crystals. Here, we use…

We predict that the occurence of zero energy Yu-Shiba-Rusinov(YSR) bound states in two different setups, metal-spin flipper-metal-s-wave superconductor ($N_{1}-sf-N_{2}-S$) and superconductor-metal-spin flipper-metal-superconductor…

Semiconductor quantum dots in close proximity to superconductors may provoke localized bound states within the superconducting energy gap known as Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) state, which is a promising candidate for constructing Majorana zero…

Superconducting heterostructures with spin-active materials have emerged as promising platforms for engineering topological superconductors featuring Majorana bound states at surfaces, edges and vortices. Here we present a method for…

Magnetic adatoms on s-wave superconductors induce bound states inside the superconducting gap, called Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states (YSR). The anisotropy of the Fermi surface determines the spatial extension of bound states in a…

We review recent developments in our understanding of how impurities influence the electronic states in the bulk of superconductors. Our focus is on the quasi-localized states in the vicinity of impurity sites in conventional and…

Magnetic impurities on a superconductor induce sub-gap Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound states, localized at the impurity site and fading away from it for distances up to several nanometers. In this article, we present a theoretical method to…

We study the effect of strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on bound states induced by impurities in superconductors. The presence of spin-orbit coupling breaks the $\mathbb{SU}(2)$-spin symmetry and causes the superconducting order parameter…

Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states arise as sub-gap excitations of a magnetic impurity in a superconducting host. Taking into account the quantum nature of the impurity spin in a single-site approximation, we study the spectral properties of the…

We argue that the formation of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov excitations in proximitized thin films is largely mediated by a type of Andreev-bound state named after de Gennes and Saint James. This is shown by studying an experimentally motivated model…

Magnetic impurities have a dramatic effect on superconductivity by breaking the time-reversal symmetry and inducing so-called Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) low energy bound states within the superconducting gap. The spatial extent of YSR states is…
