We study the evolution of the superconducting state in a perforated disk by varying the size of the hole. The superconducting properties are investigated by means of transport measurements around the superconducting/normal phase boundary…
We consider holographic superconductors in a broad class of massive gravity backgrounds. These theories provide a holographic description of a superconductor with broken translational symmetry. Such models exhibit a rich phase structure:…
Advances in scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveal the presence of superconducting nanoregions well past the bulk thermal transition in strongly disordered superconductors. We use a Monte Carlo tool to capture the spatially differentiated…
From the days when superconductivity was discovered its science was entangled by the unresolved problem of the relationship between superconductive state, its crystal structure and its phase transitions. The problem was exacerbated by the…
We propose a characterization of zero temperature phases in disordered superconductors on the basis of the nature of quasiparticle transport. In three dimensional systems, there are two distinct phases in close analogy to the distinction…
We have studied the nucleation of superconductivity in a mesoscopic Al disk wit a Co/Pd magnetic dot placed on the top by measuring the normal superconducting phase boundary Tc(B). The measurements have revealed a pronounced asymmetry with…
The superconductor to insulator transition in the presence of long-range Coulomb interactions is studied using Monte Carlo techniques. At integer filling the transition is second order. At half filling we find evidence of a first order…
We find a regime in which a strongly coupled striped superconductor features a superconducting dome. This regime is signified by i) a modulating chemical potential that averages to zero, and ii) a superconducting order parameter that has a…
The notion of spontaneous formation of an inhomogeneous superconducting state is at the heart of most theories attempting to understand the superconducting state in the presence of strong disorder. Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy and…
We study nonequilibrium steady states in a holographic superconductor under time periodic driving by an external rotating electric field. We obtain the dynamical phase diagram. Superconducting phase transition is of first or second order…
The phase transition between the intermediate and normal states in type-I superconducting films is investigated using magneto-optical imaging. Magnetic hysteresis with different transition fields for collapse and nucleation of…
We study a two-dimensional model of an isolated narrow topological band at partial filling with local attractive interactions. Numerically exact quantum Monte Carlo calculations show that the ground state is a superconductor with a critical…
We theoretically investigate the appearance of spatially modulated superconducting states in mesoscopic superconducting thin-wall cylinders in a magnetic field at low temperatures. Quantization of the electron motion around the…
The experimentally measured phase diagram of cuprate superconductors in the temperature-applied magnetic field plane illuminates key issues in understanding the physics of these materials. At low temperature, the superconducting state gives…
We propose a new boundary-driven phase transition associated with vortex nucleation in mesoscopic superconductors (of size of the order of, or larger than, the penetration depth). We derive the rescaling equations and we show that boundary…
A model of superconductivity is proposed taking into account repulsive particle interaction, mesoscopic phase separation and softening of crystalline lattice. These features are typical of many high-temperature superconductors. The main…
Superconducting properties of metallic nano-wires may strongly depend on specific experimental conditions. Here we consider a setup where superconducting phase fluctuations are restricted at one point inside the wire and equilibrium…
A new approach to the treatment of magnetic fluctuations in thin films of type I superconductors is introduced. Results for the dependence of free energy, specific heat and order parameter profile on the film thickness near the equilibrium…
Dynamical equations that are valid in the vicinity of the phase transition into the superconducting state are given. Probable effects of the field of charge carriers' magnetic interactions and the field of temperature fluctuations were…
The symmetry of the superconducting states arising directly from ferromagnetic states in the crystals with cubic and orthorombic symmetries is described. The symmetry nodes in the quasiparticle spectra of such the states are pointed out if…
