The explanation of the nature of superconducting gap in high temperature superconductors (HTSC) is a fundamental task which solution can lead to the understanding of superconducting mechanism. However, it has not been fully solved yet. From…
Superconducting micro-constrictions between Nb tips and high quality MgB$_{2}$ pellets have been realized by means of a point-contact inset, driven by a micrometric screw. Measurements of the current-voltage characteristics and of the…
We report our point-contact spectroscopy (PCS) study on the superconducting state of the type-II Dirac semimetal PdTe$_2$ with a superconducting transition temperature $T\rm_c \sim$ 1.65 K. Both mechanical- and soft- PCS differential…
Opening of a gap in the low-energy excitations spectrum affects the power-law singularity in the photon absorption spectrum $A(\Omega)$. In the normal state, the singularity, $A(\Omega)\propto [D/(\Omega-\Omega_{\rm th})]^\alpha$, is…
Transition Edge Sensors (TES) are superconducting microcalorimeters that can be used for single-photon detection with extremely low backgrounds. When they are within their superconducting transition region, small temperature fluctuations -…
A simplified model of c axis transport in the high T_c superconductors is presented. Expressions are found for the c axis optical conductivity, the d.c. resistivity, and the c axis penetration depth. Within the framework of this model, the…
We report a mechanical point-contact spectroscopy study on the single crystalline NbGe$_2$ with a superconducting transition temperature $T\rm_c$ = 2.0 - 2.1 K. The differential conductance curves at 0.3 K can be well fitted by a single gap…
We develop the multi-band BCS model of superconductivity in the ultrathin films using the orthogonal tight-binding approximation for constructing the electron wavefunctions. This allows for relatively simple determination of the band…
A method for assessing the quality of electronic material properties of thin-film metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) is presented. By investigating samples with MOCVD-grown MoS${_2}$ channels exposed to atmospheric…
Light absorption at the boundary of indirect-band-gap and direct-forbidden gap semiconductors is analyzed. It is found that the possibility of the electron momentum nonconservation at the interface leads to essential enhancement of…
We analyze the paradigmatic competition between intra-band and cross-band Cooper-pair formation in two-band superconductors, neglected in most works to date. We derive the phase-sensitive gap equations and describe the crossover between the…
It is known that in pressurized H2S the complex electronic structure in the energy range of 200 meV near the chemical potential can be separated into two electronic components, the first characterized by steep bands with a high Fermi…
We present extensive metal-line absorption properties for 45 absorption systems that were selected by their Mg II absorption at redshifts between 0.4 and 1.4. For each system the properties of several chemical species are determined,…
We characterize the superconducting state of phase pure polycrystalline samples of the new layered superconductor MgB$_2$ by specific heat measurements in magnetic fields up to 9 T. The characteristic jump at the superconducting transition…
Terahertz reflectance spectra of the Ca-intercalated graphite CaC6 reveal a superconducting gap below 11K. The gap signature lacks a sharp onset to full reflectivity at 2Delta, but rather shows a distribution of gap values consistent with…
Superconductivity is observed with critical temperatures near 9K in the tetragonal compound Mo5PB2. This material adopts the Cr5B3 structure type common to supercondcuting Nb5Si3-xBx, Mo5SiB2, and W5SiB2, which have critical temperatures of…
A universal theoretical model is proposed that explains the observed shift of IR absorption and emission bands in the spectra of transition metal ions in solid solutions of semiconductor compounds. The model has been used for estimating the…
In earlier work, we have been concerned with the scaling properties of some classes of superconductors, specifically with heavy Fermion materials and with five bcc transition metals of BCS character. Both of these classes of superconductors…
Magneto-Optical Traps have been used for several decades. Among fundamental mechanisms occuring in such traps, the magnitude of the multiple scattering is still unclear. Indeed, many experimental situations cannot be modeled easily,…
In this paper we address the question of whether high-temperature superconductors have anything in common with BCS-BEC crossover theory. Towards this goal, we present a proposal and related predictions which provide a concrete test for the…
