Superconducting stiffness $\rho_s$ and coherence length $\xi$ are usually determined by measuring the penetration depth $\lambda$ of a magnetic field and the upper critical field $H_{c2}$ of a superconductor (SC), respectively. However, in…
A new method to measure the superconducting stiffness tensor $\overline{\rho}_s$, without subjecting the sample to magnetic field, is applied to La$_{1.875}$Sr$_{0.125}$CuO$_4$ (LSCO). The method is based on the London equation…
Based on the London equation, we use a rotor-free vector potential ${\bf A}$, and current measurements by a SQUID, to determine the superconducting Pearl length $\Lambda$, and coherence length $\xi$, of ultra-thin, ring shaped, MoSi films,…
Using magnetic force microscopy operating at sub-Kelvin temperatures we characterize the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn$_5$. We pinpoint the absolute London penetration depth $\lambda(0) = 435 \pm 20$ nm and report its temperature…
We study the Ginzburg-Landau equations of super-conductivity describing the experimental setup of a Stiffnessometer device. In particular, we consider the nonlinear regime which reveals the impact of the superconductive critical current on…
Miniature Hall-probe arrays were used to measure the critical current densities for the three main directions of vortex motion in the stoichiometric LiFeAs superconductor. These correspond to vortices oriented along the c-axis moving…

Recent experiments strongly indicate deep connections between transports of strange metal and high $T_c$ superconductors. For instance, it is known that the dependence of the zero-temperature phase stiffness on the critical superconducting…
Stiffness and hysteretic energy losses are calculated for a magnetically levitating system composed of a type-II superconductor and a permanent magnet when a small vibration is produced in the system. We consider a cylindrically symmetric…

Although the flux density map of a bulk superconductor provides in principle sufficient information for calculating the magnitude and the direction of the supercurrent flow, the inversion of the Biot-Savart law is ill conditioned for thick…
We investigated current-voltage characteristics of unshunted and externally shunted Josephson junctions (JJs) with high critical current densities, Jc, in order to extract their basic parameters and statistical characteristics for JJ…

The lower critical magnetic field, $H_{c1}$, of superconductors is measured by using ensembles of NV-centers-in-diamond optical magnetometry. The technique is minimally invasive, and has sub-gauss field sensitivity and sub-$\mu$m spatial…
The resistivity of a superconductor in its normal state plays a critical role in determining its superconducting ground state. However, measuring the resistivity of a material under high pressure has long presented a significant technical…
The estimation of the critical current ($I_c$) and AC losses of high-temperature superconductor (HTS) devices through modeling and simulation requires the knowledge of the critical current density ($J_c$) of the superconducting material.…
Fascination with the concept of superconducting (SC) {\it superfluid density} $\rho_s$ has persisted since the beginning of superconductivity theory, with numerical values of an actual density rarely provided. Over time $\rho_s$, addressed…
