The effects of long-range anisotropic elastic deformations on electronic structure in superconductors are analyzed within the framework of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations. Cases of twin boundaries and isolated defects are considered as…
Scanning tunneling spectroscopy at very low temperature on homogeneously disordered superconducting Titanium Nitride thin films reveals strong spatial inhomogeneities of the superconducting gap $\Delta$ in the density of states. Upon…
Iron-chalcogenide single crystals with the nominal composition FeSe$_{0.5}$Te$_{0.5}$ and a transition temperature of $T_{c}\simeq14.6$ K were synthesized by the Bridgman method. The structural and anisotropic superconducting properties of…
The effect of a homogeneous magnetic field and nonmagnetic impurities on the critical temperature of an anisotropic superconductor has been investigated. The role of these pair-breakers in relation to the anisotropy of the order parameter…
A growing number of superconducting materials display evidence for spontaneous time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) below their critical transition temperatures. Precisely what this implies for the nature of the superconducting ground…
Magnetostriction, the anisotropic spatial deformation, is a hallmark of dipolar gases with strong long-range interactions, yet it poses a challenge for in-situ characterization. Here, we observe a magnetostriction crossover from the…
Superconductors based on transition metal dichalcogenides are of substantial current relevance, towards attaining topological superconductivity. Here we report a detailed study on the synthesis and electromagnetic characterization of…
A translation-invariant (TI) bipolaron theory of superconductivity based, like Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory, on Fr\"ohlich Hamiltonian is presented. Here the role of Cooper pairs belongs to TI bipolarons which are pairs of spatially…
Electrical resistivity experiments show superconductivity at $T_c = 1.1\,$K in a high-quality single crystal of trigonal $\gamma$-PtBi$_2$, with an enhanced critical magnetic field $\mu_0H_{c2}(0) \gtrsim 1.5\,$Tesla and a low critical…
Superconductivity in the cuprates is characterized by spatial inhomogeneity and an anisotropic electronic gap of d-wave symmetry. The aim of this work is to understand how this anisotropy affects the non-equilibrium electronic response of…
We show that the transition from a normal conducting state to a superconducting state is a second-order phase transition in the BCS-Bogoliubov model of superconductivity from the viewpoint of operator theory. Here we have no magnetic field.…
We demonstrate gate-tunable giant field-dependent nonreciprocal transport (magnetochiral anisotropy) in a noncentrosymmetric superconductor $T_{\rm d}$-MoTe$_2$ in the thin limit. Giant magnetochiral anisotropy (MCA) with a rectification…
A mysterious incoherent metallic (IM) normal state with $T$-linear resistivity is ubiquitous among strongly correlated superconductors. Recent progress with microscopic models exhibiting IM transport has presented the opportunity for us to…
This work explores the constriction and normal Josephson junctions of superconductors within Horndeski's gravitational theory framework. Through a single scalar field of this theory, we provide a dual holographic description via the…
Recent experiments reported gate-induced superconductivity in the monolayer 1T$'$-WTe$_2$ which is a two-dimensional topological insulator in its normal state [1, 2]. The in-plane upper critical field $B_{c2}$ is found to exceed the…
In this paper we show that BF topological superconductors (insulators) exibit phase transitions between different topologically ordered phases characterized by different ground state degeneracy on manifold with non-trivial topology. These…
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…
Temperature-dependent in-plane, $\rho_a(T)$, and inter-plane, $\rho_c(T)$, resistivities were measured for the iron-arsenide superconductor (Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$)Fe $_2$As$_2$ over a broad doping range from parent compound to optimal doping…
Layered doped Mott insulators, such as the cuprates, show unusual temperature dependence of the resistivity. Intriguingly, the resistivity perpendicular to the CuO$_2$ planes, $\rho_c(T)$, shows both metallic ($d\rho_c/dT > 0$) and…
Superconductivity on the surface of topological insulators is known to be anisotropic and unconventional in that the symmetry is the mixture of s-wave and nodeless p-wave component. In contrast to Anderson's theorem for the insensitivity of…
