We propose a scenario for superconductivity at strong electron-electron attractive interaction, in the case when the increase of the interaction strength promotes the nucleation of the local Cooper pairs and forms a state with a spatially…
We have observed that thin films of amorphous polyimide placed between two metallic electrodes become highly conducting with no applied electric field, and at a low pressure which was necessary only to achieve reliable electrical contact…
Effects due to the proximity of a superconductor has motivated a lot of research work in the last several decades both from theoretical and experimental point of view. In this review we are going to describe the physics of systems…
A thin ferromagnetic layer on a bulk equal-spin-pairing triplet superconductor is shown to mediate a Josephson coupling between the spin $\uparrow$ and $\downarrow$ condensates of the superconductor. By deriving analytic expressions for the…
We analyze the properties of flat-band superconductor junctions that behave differently from ordinary junctions containing only metals with Fermi surfaces. In particular, we show how in the tunneling limit the critical Josephson current…
Mobile holes in an antiferromagnetic insulator form a slowly fluctuating array of quasi one-dimensional metallic stripes, which induce a spin gap or pseudogap in the intervening Mott-insulating regions. The mobile holes on an individual…
For type II superconductors, Josephson has shown that vortices moving with velocity v_L create an effective electric field E'=-v_L x B. By definition the effective electric field is gradient of the electrochemical potential, what is the…
High density superconductor-semiconductor-superconductor junctions have a small induced superconducting gap due to the quasiparticle trajectories with a large momentum parallel to the junction having a very long flight time. Because a large…
We review our experiments on the electronic transport properties of atomic contacts between metallic electrodes, in particular superconducting ones. Despite ignorance of the exact atomic configuration, these ultimate quantum point contacts…
When two perfectly conducting inclusions are located closely to each other, the electric field concentrates in a narrow region in between two inclusions, and becomes arbitrarily large as the distance between two inclusions tends to zero.…
The analysis of a previous paper, in which it was shown that the energy for the Aharonov-Bohm effect could be traced to the interaction energy between the magnetic field of the electron and the background magnetic field, is extended to…
In a Josephson junction, the supercurrent is determined by both the discrete sub-gap part of the spectrum due to Andreev bound states and the continuous part of the spectrum from energy states outside the superconducting gap. We consider…
We consider the Josephson effect through a thin spin-orbit coupled layer in the presence of an exchange field, and discover a set of supercurrent vortices appearing in the system which can be controllably moved around in the system by…
We study disordered Josephson junctions arrays with long-range interaction and charging effects. The model consists of two orthogonal sets of positionally disordered $N$ parallel filaments (or wires) Josephson coupled at each crossing and…
It is generally believed that superconductivity can occur in materials irrespective of whether the charge carriers in the material are electrons or holes. Here we point out that Josephson tunneling would not occur between superconductors…
We investigate the effect of electron-electron interactions on proximity-induced $s$-wave superconductivity in one-dimensional nanowires. We treat the interactions on a self-consistent mean-field level, and find an analytic expression for…
A microwave electromagnetic field can excite a coherent roton aggregate in liquid helium around a dielectric resonator. We show that multiple coherent aggregates are excited simultaneously and predict a Josephson effect between them. The…
Spatial fluctuations of the effective pairing interaction between electrons in a superconductor induce variations of the order parameter which in turn lead to significant changes in the density of states. In addition to an overall reduction…
The coupling of two s-wave superconductors through a small magnetic dot is discussed. Assuming that the dot charging energy is small compared to the superconducting gap, $E_c\ll \Delta$, and that the moment of the dot is classical, we…
We introduce a new approach to the Josephson effect in SIS tunnel junctions. The Josephson coupling energy is calculated from the overlap of real space Cooper pair wavefunctions in two superconductors through an insulating barrier. It is…
