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 create in-gap states on superconductors. Recent experiments explore the topological properties of one-dimensional arrays of magnetic impurities on superconductors, because in certain regimes p-wave pairing can be locally…
In this work we consider the influence of potential impurities deposited on top of two-dimensional chiral superconductors. As discovered recently, magnetic impurity lattices on an $s$-wave superconductor may give rise to a rich topological…
Chains of magnetic atoms placed on the surface of an s-wave superconductor with large spin-orbit coupling provide a promising platform for the realization of topological superconducting states characterized by the presence of Majorana…
We study subgap states induced by a single impurity in an s-wave superconductor with suppressed pairing. For concreteness, we consider a bulk superconductor containing a normal spherical region. We find that a point impurity in this system…
Impurity effects are probes for revealing an unconventional property in superconductivity. We study effects of non-magnetic impurities, in a 2D topological superconductor with s-wave pairing, the Rashba spin-orbit coupling, and the Zeeman…
We theoretically investigate the phase transition from a non-trivial topological $p$-wave superconductor to a trivial $s$-wave like superconducting phase through a gapless phase, driven by different magnetic textures as an one-dimensional…
We investigate the possibility of realizing a topological state in the impurity band formed by a chain of classical spins embedded in a two-dimensional singlet superconductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. In contrast to similar proposals…
We consider the effects of impurities on topological insulators and superconductors. We start by identifying the general conditions under which the eigenenergies of an arbitrary Hamiltonian H belonging to one of the Altland-Zirnbauer…
Magnetic impurities on the surface of spin-orbit coupled but otherwise conventional superconductors provide a promising way to engineer topological superconductors with Majorana bound states as for boundary modes. In this work, we show that…
We perform self-consistent studies of two-dimensional (2D) $s$-wave topological superconductivity (TSC) with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and Zeeman field by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations. In particular, we examine the effects of…
We study the effects of quantum interference in impurity structures consisting of two or three magnetic impurities that are located on the surface of an s-wave superconductor. By using a self-consistent Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism, we…
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…
Unconventional features in superconductivity are revealed by responses to impurity scattering. We study non-magnetic impurity effects in a three-dimensional topological superconductor, focusing on an effective model (massive Dirac…
We theoretically study the appearance of bound states around impurities in a superconducting bilayer. We focus our attention on $s$-wave pairing, which includes unconventional odd-parity states permitted by the layer degree of freedom.…
We study the quasiparticle spectrum of 2D topological $s$-wave superconductors with the Zeeman magnetic field and the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in the presence of spatial inhomogeneity. Solving the real-space Bogoliubov-de Gennes…
Heterostructures allow the realization of electronic states that are difficult to obtain in isolated systems. Exemplary is the case of quasi-one-dimensional heterostructures formed by a superconductor and a semiconductor with spin-orbit…
The impurity effects are studied for the BiS_{2}- layered superconductors based on a two orbital model with the Bogoliubov-de-Gennes technique. The superconducting critical temperature (T_{c}) as a function of the mpurity concentration is…
In conventional s-wave superconductors, only magnetic impurities exhibit impurity bound states, whereas for an s+- order parameter they can occur for both magnetic and non-magnetic impurities. Impurity bound states in superconductors can…
Quantum states induced by single-atomic impurities are at the frontier of physics and material science. While such states have been reported in high-temperature superconductors and dilute magnetic semiconductors, they are unexplored in…
