Magnetic impurities in $s$-wave superconductors lead to spin-polarized Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) in-gap states. Chains of magnetic impurities offer one of the most viable routes for the realization of Majorana bound states which hold a promise…
We study the effects of a phase difference on Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states in a spinful Coulomb-blockaded quantum dot contacted by a superconducting loop. In the limit where charging energy is larger than the superconducting gap, we…
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 use the numerical renormalization group theory to investigate the Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound state properties of single magnetic molecules placed in an s-wave superconducting substrate. The molecule consist of a large core spin and a…
We investigate the nature of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) subgap states induced by single Manganese (Mn) atoms adsorbed on different surface orientations of superconducting lead (Pb). Depending on the adsorption site, we detect a distinct number…
The magnetic exchange coupling between magnetic impurities and a superconductor induce so-called Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states which undergo a quantum phase transition (QPT) upon increasing the exchange interaction beyond a critical value.…
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 study the properties of collective Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states generated by multiple magnetic adatoms (clusters) placed on the surface of a superconductor. For magnetic clusters with equal distances between their constituents, we…
A magnetic impurity coupled to a superconductor gives rise to a Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) state inside the superconducting energy gap. With increasing exchange coupling the excitation energy of this state eventually crosses zero and the system…
A Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) state is a localized in-gap state induced by a magnetic impurity in a superconductor. Recent experiments used an STM tip to manipulate the exchange coupling between an Fe adatom and the ${\rm FeTe}_{0.55}{\rm…
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…
Motivated by recent experiments, which allow for fine tuning of the effective magnetic interaction between the impurity and the superconductor, we investigate the regime around the quantum phase transition where the system's ground state…
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…
Robust quantum systems rely on having a protective environment with minimized relaxation channels. Superconducting gaps play an important role in the design of such environments. The interaction of localized single spins with a conventional…
Recent studies of mutually interacting magnetic atoms coupled to a superconductor have gained enormous interest due to the potential realization of topological superconductivity. The Kondo exchange coupling J_K of such atoms with the…
Using double quantum dots as the weak link of a Josephson junction, we realize the superconducting analog of the celebrated two-impurity Kondo model. The device shows a cusped current-voltage characteristic, which can be modelled by an…
Magnetic atoms can break the Cooper pairs of superconductors, leading to the formation of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound states inside superconducting gaps. Theory predicts that the YSR bound states can be controlled by tuning the electron…
We demonstrate direct transport between two opposing sets of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) subgap states realized in a double quantum dot. This sub-gap transport relies on intrinsic quasiparticle relaxation, but the tunability of the device allows…
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 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…
