Thin superconducting films are usually regarded as type II superconductors even when they are made of a type I material. The reason is a strong contribution of the stray magnetic field that stabilizes vortices. While very thin films indeed…
Ultrathin superconductors of different materials are becoming a powerful platform to find mechanisms for enhancement of superconductivity, exploiting shape resonances in different superconducting properties. Here we evaluate the…
Using soft x-ray spectromicroscopy, we investigate the magnetic domain structure in embedded nanomagnets defined in La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ thin films and LaFeO$_3$/La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ bilayers. We find that shape-controlled…
We study the interaction between a one dimensional magnetic nanostructure and a thin film superconductor. It is shown that different magnetic distributions produce characteristic magnetic field signatures. Moreover, the magnetic structure…
Structural, magnetic, and superconducting properties of S/F bilayers Nb/Cu40Ni60 deposited on silicon substrate have been characterized using Polarized Neutron Reflectometry and complementary techniques. The study allowed to determine real…
The relevant length scales for superconductivity are of the order of nanometers. By confining the superconducting condensate to such dimensions, many physical properties change substantially, and novel phenomena emerge, which are absent in…
We present a low-energy muon-spin-rotation study of the magnetic and superconducting properties of YBa2Cu3O7/PrBa2Cu3O7 trilayer and bilayer heterostructures. By determining the magnetic-field profiles throughout these structures we show…
The magneto-transport of a superconducting/ferromagnetic hybrid structure consisting of a superconducting thin film in contact with an array of magnetic nanodots in the so-called "magnetic vortex-state" exhibits interesting properties. For…
Employment of the non-trivial proximity effect in Superconductor/Ferromagnet (S/F) heterostructures for creation of novel superconducting devices requires an accurate control of magnetic states in complex thin-film multilayers composing…
The work is devoted to the study of the processes of formation and analysis of the parameters of a functional nanostructure -- a superconducting spin valve, which is a multilayer structure consisting of ferromagnetic cobalt nanofilms…
Noncentrosymmetric 2D superconductors with large spin-orbit coupling offer an opportunity to explore superconducting behaviors far beyond the Pauli limit. One such superconductor, few-layer T$_d$-MoTe$_2$, has large upper critical fields…
We studied experimentally the effect of a stripe-like domain structure in a ferromagnetic BaFe_{12}O_{19} substrate on the magnetoresistance of a superconducting Pb microbridge. The system was designed in such a way that the bridge is…
Superconductivity in granular films is controlled by the grain size and the inter-grain coupling. In a two-component granular system formed by a random mixture of a normal metal (N) and a superconductor (S), the superconducting nano-grains…
We demonstrate that the hybrid structures consisting of a superconducting layer with an adjacent spin-textured ferromagnet demonstrate the variety of equilibrium magnetoelectric effects originating from coupling between the conduction…
We have fabricated Fe-B thin film composition spreads in search of possible superconducting phases following a theoretical prediction by Kolmogorov et al.^1 Co-sputtering was used to deposit spreads covering a large compositional region of…
We consider the effect of a multiple magnetic domain structure in a superconductor/ferromagnet bilayer, modeled by a ferromagnetic layer with a rotating magnetic moment. The domain walls in this model are of equal size as the domains, and…
Nickel/Bismuth (Ni/Bi) bilayers have recently attracted attention due to the occurrence of time-reversal symmetry breaking in the superconducting state. Here, we report on the structural, magnetic and electric characterization of thin film…
The surface impedance of Nb/CuMn (superconducting/spin-glass) bilayers has been measured at 10 GHz with the parallel plate resonator technique to obtain information about the exotic behavior of the order parameter in…
It is well known that external magnetic fields and magnetic moments of impurities both suppress superconductivity. Here, we demonstrate that their combined effect enhances the superconductivity of a few atomic layer thick Pb films grown on…
Hybrid superconducting/magnetic nanostructures on Si substrates have been built with identical physical dimensions but different magnetic configurations. By constructing arrays based on Co-dots with in-plane, out-of-plane, and vortex state…
