A superconductor connected to normal leads allows to generate Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen pairs by Cooper pair splitting. It has been realized with quantum dots either defined in carbon nanotubes or InAs nanowires. After establishing the…
Motivated by the recent experiment of the non-BCS scaling relation of the condensation energy $\Delta CE$ vs. $T_c$ ($\Delta CE \sim T_c ^{\beta}, \beta\approx 3.5$) [PRB 89 140503 (2014)] for the Fe-based superconductors, we studied the CE…
Over twenty years ago one of us suggested the title was affirmative. In 2012 Cooper pairs were identified in several, but not all aromatic compounds tested, benzene being one. This manuscript discusses the formation of three time-reversed…
The transition from the weakly interacting BCS regime to the strongly interacting unitary regime is explored for ultracold trapped Fermi gases assuming a normal mode description of the gas instead of the conventional Cooper pairing. The…
The phenomenon of low-temperature superconductivity is intimately associated with the condensation of weakly bound, very extended, strongly overlapping Cooper pairs, and systematic experimental studies of the associated mean square radius…
The common wisdom that the phonon mechanism of electron pairing in the weak-coupling Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductors leads to conventional s-wave Cooper pairs is revised. An inevitable anisotropy of sound velocity in…
One considers the superfluid (SF) state of a Bose liquid with a strong repulsion between bosons, in which at T=0, along with a weak single-particle Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), there exists an intensive pair coherent condensate (PCC),…
We extend the one-pair Cooper configuration towards Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) model of superconductivity by adding one-by-one electron pairs to an energy layer where a small attraction acts. To do it, we solve Richardson's equations…
We theoretically study the ground-state properties and the condensations of exciton-like Cooper pairs and biexciton-like Cooper quartets in an electron-hole system. Applying the variational approach associated based on the quartet…
We consider a system of repulsively interacting Bose-Fermi mixtures of spin polarized uniform atomic gases at zero temperature. We examine possible realization of p-wave superfluidity of fermions due to an effective attractive interaction…
The standard phenomenological Hamiltonian of a small superconducting Josephson junction in the charge regime (Cooper Pair Box) produces a model of the effective charge qubit with possible applications to quantum information processing. In…
We study resonantly-paired s-wave superfluidity in a degenerate gas of two species (hyperfine states labeled by $\uparrow,\downarrow$) of fermionic atoms when the numbers $N_{\uparrow}$ and $N_{\downarrow}$ of the two species are {\it…
The Josephson relation for the superfluid density is derived for a Fermi superfluid in the BCS-BEC crossover. This identity extends the original Josephson relation for Bose superfluids. It gives a simple exact relation between the…
The formation of Cooper pairs, a bound state of two electrons of opposite spin and momenta by exchange of a phonon [1], is a defining feature of conventional superconductivity. In the cuprate high temperature superconductors, even though it…
We describe the effects of disorder on the critical temperature of $s$-wave superfluids from the BCS to the BEC regime, with direct application to ultracold fermions. We use the functional integral method and the replica technique to study…
The main focus of this paper is a discussion of what might happen in a BCS superfluid when there is an imbalance between the two populations of fermionic particles forming Cooper pairs, having in mind the case of ultracold Fermi gases. In…
In paired Fermi systems, strong many-body effects exhibit in the crossover regime between the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) and the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) limits. The concept of the BCS-BEC crossover, which is studied…
We report a microscopic model wherein the unconventional superconductivity emerges from an incoherent `Cooper-pair glass' state. Driven by the pair-pair interaction, a new type of quasi-Bose phase transition is at work. The interaction…
We review the BCS to Bose Einstein condensation (BEC) crossover scenario which is based on the well known crossover generalization of the BCS ground state wavefunction $\Psi_0$. While this ground state has been summarized extensively in the…
The Cooper pair is generally analyzed in momentum space, but its real-space structure also follows directly from the BCS theory. It is shown here that this leads to a spherically symmetrical quasi-atomic wavefunction, with an identical…
