The temperature dependence of the complex optical properties of the three-dimensional topological insulator Bi2Te2Se is reported for light polarized in the a-b planes at ambient pressure, as well as the effects of pressure at room…
We calculate the infrared conductivity tensor of a layered superconductor considering two different order parameter symmetries: strongly anisotropic $s$-wave with line nodes, and pure ($d_{x^2-y^2}$) $d$-wave. The calculations are performed…
We propose a model and derive analytical expressions for conductivity in heterogeneous fully anisotropic conductors with ellipsoid superconducting inclusions. This model and calculations are useful to analyze the observed temperature…
We address how the finite frequency real conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ in the underdoped cuprates is affected by the pseudogap, contrasting the behavior above and below $T_c$. The f-sum rule is analytically shown to hold. Here we presume…
Based on the experimentally found existence of two gaps in MgB2 (one gap associated to the boron sigma-states and the other to the boron pi-states), the different contributions to the transport properties, electrical conductivity and Hall…
In most superconductors, optical excitations require impurity scattering or the presence of multiple bands. This is because in clean single-band superconductors, the combination of particle-hole and inversion symmetries prevents…
A variety of experimental observations in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide superconductors with Ising spin-orbit coupling suggest the presence of an unconventional superconducting pairing mechanism. Some of these experiments…
Observed optical reflectivity in the infrared spectral region is compared with theoretical predictions in a strongly coupled electron-phonon system. Starting from a Froehlich Hamiltonian, the spectral functions and their temperature…
The discovery of van der Waals superconductors in recent years has generated a lot of excitement for their potentially novel pairing mechanisms. However, their typical atomic-scale thickness and micrometer-scale lateral dimensions impose…
Recent intensive experimental studies revealed that (Y,Lu)Ni$_2$B$_2$C is an anisotropic s-wave superconductor. In addition, its gap function possesses deep point minima, whose ratio of the gap anisotropy is more than 10. On the theoretical…
We have measured the resistivity, optical conductivity, and magnetic susceptibility of LaSb$_2$ to search for clues as to the cause of the extraordinarily large linear magnetoresistance and to explore the properties of the superconducting…
We present scanning tunneling spectroscopy and microscopy measurements at low temperatures in the borocarbide materials RNi2B2C (R=Y, Lu). The characteristic strong coupling structure due to the pairing interaction is unambiguously resolved…
The properties of the d-wave superconducting state in the two-dimensional system have been studied. It has been assumed, that the pairing mechanism is based on the electron-phonon and the electron-electron-phonon interactions. The obtained…
Ising superconductivity has been recently discovered in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides. We report that such superconductors have unusual optical properties controlled by the in-plane Zeeman field. First, we find several optical gaps…
The structure of the superconducting gap provides important clues on the symmetry of the order parameter and the pairing mechanism. The presence of nodes in the gap function imposed by symmetry implies an unconventional order parameter,…
We have built a Terahertz Dispersive Fourier Transform Spectrometer \cite{Birch1987} to study frequency properties of superconducting films used for fabrication of THz detectors. The signal reflected from the tested film is measured in time…
We present the intrinsic optical properties over a broad spectral range of TiN thin films deposited on a Si/SiO$_2$ substrate. We analyze the measured reflectivity spectra of the film-substrate multilayer structure within a well-establish…
Time-resolved optical conductivity is an oft-used tool to interrogate quantum materials driven out of equilibrium. Theoretically calculating this observable is a complex topic with several approaches discussed in the literature. Using a…
Since the discovery of superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates, there have been extensive efforts to unravel their electronic structure and pairing mechanism. In particular, understanding how the electronic structure evolves with…
We begin with an overview of the experimental results for the temperature and doping dependences of the optical-conductivity spectral weight in cuprate superconductors across the whole phase diagram. Then we discuss recent attempts to…
