More than a quarter century after the discovery of the high temperature superconductor (HTS) YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+\delta}$ (YBCO) studies continue to uncover complexity in its phase diagram. In addition to HTS and the pseudogap there is…

We report on the normal-superconducting phase transition in thick $\mathrm{YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-\delta}}$ films in zero magnetic field. We find significant finite-size effects at low currents even in our thickest films ($d = 3200$ \AA). Using…

Using the Green's function of the 3D heat equation, we develop an analytical account of the thermal behaviour of superconducting films subjected to electrical currents larger than their critical current in the absence of an applied magnetic…

Superconducting systems may display different types of nonequilibrium states depending on the specific constraints imposed for measurement. We probe current-voltage relations of three-dimensional superconducting films by allowing finite…

We study the critical behavior of magnetic thin films as a function of the film thickness. We use the ferromagnetic Ising model with the high-resolution multiple histogram Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. We show that though the 2D behavior…

The non-linear (electric field-dependent) resistivity of the 2D electron system in silicon exhibits scaling as a function of electric field and electron density in both the metallic and insulating phases, providing further evidence for a…

We show that if the excitations which become gapless at a quantum critical point also carry the electrical current, then a resistivity linear in temperature, as is observed in the copper-oxide high-temperature superconductors, obtains only…

Certain frustrated systems, including spin ice and dimer models, exhibit a Coulomb phase at low temperatures, with power-law correlations and fractionalized monopole excitations. Transitions out of this phase, at which the effective gauge…

We discuss the analysis of mixed-state magnetization data of type-II superconductors using a recently developed scaling procedure. It is based on the fact that, if the Ginzburg-Landau parameter kappa does not depend on temperature, the…

We consider, within BCS weak coupling theory, the instability of a $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductor to a state of mixed symmetry $d+iq$, $q=d_{xy},s$. In zero magnetic field we show that there is a large and physically reasonable range of…

We have reexamined data on the possible two dimensional metal-insulator transition at B=0 in Si-MOSFETs using a nonlinear regression method to extract all scaling parameters in a single fit. By keeping track of the magnitude of errors in…

A Hartree approximation is used to study the interplay of two kinds of scaling which arise in high-temperature superconductors, namely critical-point scaling and that due to the confinement of electron pairs to their lowest Landau level in…

Even after nearly a century of discovery of superconductivity, there has been no direct experimental proof of the expected zero resistance of superconductors. Indeed, it has been believed that it is impossible to experimentally show that…

We characterize the behaviour of split ring resonators made up of high-transition temperature YBCO superconductor using terahertz time domain spectroscopy. The superconductor metamaterial shows sharp change in the transmission spectrum at…

Current-voltage characteristics of Au~/~YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ interfaces (Au/YBCO), built on optimally-doped YBCO thin films, grown by pulsed laser deposition, were measured as a function of temperature in the 50 K to 270 K range, for…

We investigate the field tuned quantum phase transition in a 2D low-disorder amorphous InO$_x$ film in the frequency range of 0.05 to 16 GHz employing microwave spectroscopy. In the zero temperature limit, the AC data are consistent with a…

Persistent scaling behavior of magnetization in layered high $T_c$ superconductors with short--range columnar defects is explained within the Ginzburg Landau theory. In the weak field region, the scaling function differs from that of a…

The magnetic ac susceptibility of high-temperature superconductors is shown to obey some scaling relations.We try to ananlyse this behavior within the framework of a common nonlinear response function of mixed state.The derived equations…

We propose an analytical model devoted to explain the anisotropy of the electrical resistance observed below the critical temperature in granular high-Tc superconductors submitted to a magnetic field H. Reported experimental results…

We have studied the zero magnetic field resistivity of unique high- mobility two-dimensional electron system in silicon. At very low electron density (but higher than some sample-dependent critical value, $n_{cr}\sim 10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$),…
