We study the dissipative conductivity $\sigma_1$ of a dirty superconductor with a finite Dynes parameter $\Gamma$ under a dc-biased weak time-dependent field. The Usadel equation for the current-carrying state is solved to calculate the…
We report on measuring the depairing current J_{dp} in thin superconducting films as a function of temperature. The main difficulties in such measurements are that heating has to be avoided, either due to contacts, or to vortex flow. The…
The tunneling density of states in dirty superconductors is often well described by the phenomenological Dynes formula. Recently we have shown that this formula can be derived, within the coherent potential approximation, for…
Superflow in a phenomenological tight-binding model for the superconducting state of some High-temperature superconductors is discussed thoroughly. The formalism used is explicitly gauge-invariant and currents are computed exactly within…
The frequency-dependent complex optical conductivity reflects key properties of superconductors, such as the energy gap in the density of states (DOS) and the superfluid density. For disordered superconductors, the optical conductivity…
We use both Eilenberger-Usadel and Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory to calculate the superfluid's temperature-dependent kinetic inductance for all currents up to the depairing current in thin and narrow superconducting films. The calculations…
We study how the supercurrent flow pattern is altered by inhomogeneities in superconducting films. Working in the vicinity of the critical temperature and assuming a model of short-range disorder in the quadratic term of the Ginzburg-Landau…
Recently a generic model has been proposed for the single-particle properties of gapless superconductors with simultaneously present pair-conserving and pair-breaking impurity scattering (the so-called Dynes superconductors). Here we…
As the most successful microscopic superconductivity theory, Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer(BCS) theory has a very peculiar prediction: at zero temperature, only a fraction of electrons within an energy shell form Cooper pair and condense, but…
We present transport, Hall effect, electronic tunnelling and penetration depth studies in 3D homogeneously disordered epitaxial NbN thin films with disorder ranging from the moderately clean limit (k_Fl~10.12) to the very dirty limit…
Many disordered superconducting films exhibit smeared tunneling spectra with evident in-gap states. We demonstrated that the tunneling density of states in ultrathin MoC films is gapless and can be described by the Dynes version of the BCS…
We study the energy gap within the Dynes superconductor theory. This model generalizes the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) approach by including the pair-breaking scattering, introducing the tunneling in-gap states up to a Fermi level. We…
The problem of a thin superconducting film in a parallel magnetic field, first discussed in the classical paper by Ginzburg and Landau for temperatures close to the critical, is revisited with the help of the microscopic BCS theory for…
We report numerical calculations of a dynamic pairbreaking current density $J_d$ and a critical superfluid velocity $v_d$ in a nonequilibrium superconductor carrying a uniform, large-amplitude ac current density $J(t)=J_a\sin\Omega t$ with…
Understanding the roles of disorder and superconducting phase fluctuation in superconductivity has been a long-standing challenge. For example, while the phase fluctuation is expected to destroy the superconductivity of intrinsically…
The phenomenon of superconductivity occurs in the phase space of three principal parameters: temperature T, magnetic field B, and current density Jd . The critical temperature Tc is one of the first parameters that is measured and in a…
Flux flow properties for clean and dirty superconducting limits in strong pinning niobium films are studied. Measurements of electric field vs current density characteristics at high J values (J = 10^{6} A/cm^{2}) are successfully compared…
The transport of electrical current through a superconductor falls into three broad regimes: non-dissipative, dissipative but superconducting, and normal or non-superconducting. These regimes are demarkated by two definitions of critical…
We report the evolution of superconducting properties as a function of disorder in homogeneously disordered epitaxial NbN thin films grown on (100) MgO substrates, studied through a combination of electrical transport, Hall Effect and…
As a prototype of a disordered superconductor we consider the attractive Hubbard model with on-site disorder. We solve the Bogoljubov-de-Gennes equations on two-dimensional finite clusters at zero temperature and evaluate the…
