Reaching superconductivity at ambient conditions is one of the biggest scientific dreams. The discoveries in the last few years at high pressures place hydrogen-based compounds as the best candidates for making it true. As the recent…
The recent discovery that superconductivity occurs in several clean itinerant ferromagnets close to low temperature magnetic instabilities naturally invites an interpretation based on a proximity to quantum criticality. Here we report…
We propose a theoretical description of the superconducting state of under- to overdoped cuprates, based on the short coherence length of these materials and the associated strong pairing fluctuations. The calculated $T_c$ and the zero…
Understanding the rich and competing electronic orders in cuprate superconductors may provide important insight into the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity. Here, by measuring Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x in the extremely underdoped regime,…
In recent experiments with a superconducting nanosized Pb bridge formed between a scanning tunneling microscope tip and a substrate, superconductivity has been detected at magnetic fields, which are few times larger than the third (surface)…
Two single crystalline samples with the same nominal composition of Rb0.8Fe2Se2 prepared via slightly different precursor routes under the same thermal processing conditions were investigated at ambient and high pressures. One sample was…
The normal-state conductivity and superconducting critical temperature of oxygen-deficient YBa2Cu3O7-x can be persistently enhanced by illumination. Strongly debated for years, the origin of those effects -- termed persistent…
Stanene, composed of tin atoms arranged in a single layer, is the tin analogue of graphene and past studies predicted it to be a topological insulator. An energy band gap (of $\sim 0.1$~eV) was obtained in previous calculations for the…
Charge density waves are a common occurrence in all families of high critical temperature superconducting cuprates. Although consistently observed in the underdoped region of the phase diagram and at relatively low temperatures, it is still…
A central issue in the physics of high temperature superconductors is to understand superconductivity within a single copper-oxide layer or bilayer, the fundamental structural unit in the cuprates, and how it is lost with underdoping. As…
The physical mechanism of superconductivity is proposed on the basis of carrier-induced dynamic strain effect. By this new model, superconducting state consists of the dynamic bound state of superconducting electrons, which is formed by the…
We measured the magnetoresistance as a function of temperature down to 20mK and magnetic field for a set of underdoped PrCeCuO (x=0.12) thin films with controlled oxygen content. This allows us to access the edge of the superconducting dome…
There is an ongoing debate about the relative importance of structural change versus doping charge carriers on the mechanism of superconductivity in Fe-based materials. Elucidating this issue is a major challenge since it would require a…
The experimental determination of the superconducting transition requires the observation of the emergence of zero-resistance and perfect diamagnetism state. Based on the close relationship between superconducting transition temperature…
Significant manifestation of interplay of superconductivity and charge density wave, spin density wave or magnetism is dome-like variation in superconducting critical temperature (Tc) for cuprate, iron-based and heavy Fermion…
The model of hypothetical superconductivity, where the energy gap asymptotically approaches zero as temperature increases, has been proposed. Formally the critical temperature of such a superconductor is equal to infinity. For practical…
The recently reported gate-tunable superconductivity in monolayer WTe$_2$ [Science 362, 922 (2018); Science 362, 926 (2018); Nat. Phys. 20, 269 (2024); PRR 7, 013224 (2025)] exhibits several striking anomalies beyond the standard paradigm,…
In the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau equation, the temperature dependence of the upper critical field of small ring-like superconductors is studied. At equilibrium small parts of the phase diagram show paramagnetism for width / radius…
A crossover between logarithmic and exponential temperature dependence of the conductance (weak and strong localization) has been observed in ultrathin films of metals deposited onto substrates held at liquid helium temperatures. The…
An increasing current through a superconductor can result in a discontinuous increase in the differential resistance at the critical current. This critical current is typically associated either with breaking of Cooper-pairs (de-pairing) or…
