We examined the proximity effect in granular films made of Pb, a superconductor, and Ni, a ferromagnet, with various compositions. Slow decay of the critical temperature as a function of the relative volume concentration of Ni per sample…

Proximity effect and pair tunneling models are applied as alternative scenarios to explain the recently measured $ab$-plane and $c$-axis components of the superfluid tensor in Copper-Oxide superconductors which contain chains, such as…

A theory of the proximity effect in normal metal - multiband superconductor hybrid structures is formulated within the quasiclassical Green's function formalism. It is shown that the existence of multiple superconducting bands manifests…

The ability to simulate realistically the electronic structure of superconducting materials is important to understand and predict various properties emerging in both the superconducting topological and spintronics realms. We introduce a…

In this communication we consider generalities of the proximity effect in a contact between a conventional $s$-wave superconductor (S) nano-island and a thin film of a topological insulator (TI). A local hybridization coupling mechanism is…

In this talk, I discuss the recent development in color superconductivity in terms of effective field theory. By investigating the Cooper pair gap equations at high density, we see that the effective theory simplifies the gap analysis very…

Recently there has been reinvigorated interest in the superconducting proximity effect, driven by predictions of the emergence of Majorana fermions. To help guide this search, we have developed a phenomenological model for the tunneling…

The standard mean-field treatment of low-temperature superconductors leads to a square-root divergent density of states at the gap value. This feature can lead to unphysical logarithmic divergences in various quantities, such as currents…

We propose a scenario for superconductivity at strong electron-electron attractive interaction, in the case when the increase of the interaction strength promotes the nucleation of the local Cooper pairs and forms a state with a spatially…

We report on transport and tunneling measurements performed on ultra-thin Pb/Ag (strong coupled superconductor/normal metal) multilayers evaporated by quench condensation. The critical temperature and energy gap of the heterostructures…

The effect of the barrier on the proximity effect in normal-superconductor junction is analyzed. A general criterion for the barrier, though large, to be effectively transparent, is given. This criterion is applied to both the conductance…

In this paper we present scanning tunneling microscopy of Bi$_2$Se$_3$ with superconducting Nb deposited on the surface. We find that the topologically protected surface states of the Bi$_2$Se$_3$ leak into the superconducting over-layer,…

Proximity effect facilitates the penetration of Cooper pairs that permits superconductivity in normal metal, offerring a promising approach to turn heterogeneous materials into superconducting and develop exceptional quantum phenomena.…

A density-functional formalism for superconductivity {\em and} magnetism is presented. The resulting relations unify previously derived Kohn-Sham equations for superconductors and for non-collinear magnetism. The formalism, which…

We have measured the tunneling density of states (DOS) in a superconductor carrying a supercurrent or exposed to an external magnetic field. The pair correlations are weakened by the supercurrent, leading to a modification of the DOS and to…

We review the present status of the experimental and theoretical research on the proximity effect in heterostructures composed of superconducting (S) and ferromagnetic (F) thin films. First, we discuss traditional effects originating from…

The superconducting proximity effect is investigated for SN double layers in a regime where the resulting transition temperature T_{c} does not depend on the mean free paths of the films and, within limits, not on the transparency of the…

A theoretical model for tunneling spectroscopy employing tight-binding band structure, d-wave gap symmetry, group velocity, and tunneling directionality can exhibit a wide range of characteristics similar to the ones found in tunneling…
