We present a model of pressure effects of a two-band superconductor based on a Ginzburg-Landau free energy with two order parameters. The parameters of the theory are pressure as well as temperature dependent. New pressure effects emerge as…
Recent reports on quantum oscillations in MgB2 provide valuable information on three important aspects of this material: (1) electronic structure near the Fermi level, (2) disparity of the electron-phonon interaction between the two systems…
We report on the measurement of multiple Andreev resonances at atomic size point contacts between two superconducting nanostructures of Pb under magnetic fields higher than the bulk critical field, where superconductivity is restricted to a…
We provide a comparison of accurate full potential band calculations of the Fermi surfaces areas and masses of MgB2 and ZrB2 with the de Haas-van Alphen date of Yelland et al. and Tanaka et al., respectively. The discrepancies in areas in…
We consider some general aspects of dependence of magneto-conductivity on a magnetic field in metals having complicated Fermi surfaces. As it is well known, a nontrivial behavior of conductivity in metals in strong magnetic fields is…
The Andreev Reflection is the key mechanism for the superconducting proximity effect. It provides phase correlations in a system of non-interacting electrons at mesoscopic scales, i.e. over distances much larger than the microscopic lengths…
Anisotropic properties of superconducting MgB2 obtained by torque magnetometry are compared to theoretical predictions, concentrating on two issues. Firstly, the angular dependence of Hc2 is shown to deviate close to Tc from the dependence…
Magnetic properties under the external field are investigated in low-carrier two-band systems, which may explain the nontrivial phase boundary found in temperature vs. magnetic field diagram discovered in some materials, such as…
Most superconducting materials exhibit a vanishing density of states at the Fermi level and Anderson's theorem posits that the superconducting gap is robust against nonmagnetic disorder. Although dilute magnetic impurities lead to localized…
We have studied the anisotropy of the London penetration depth, which was obtained from reversible magnetization measurements with the magnetic field both parallel and perpendicular to the c-axis. The anisotropy of the London penetration…
Recent works have predicted materials featuring bands with a large spin-splitting distinct from ferromagnetic and relativistically spin-orbit coupled systems. Materials displaying this property are known as altermagnets and feature a…
A combined experimental and theoretical study of very-low-energy electron diffraction at the (0001) surface of 2H-NbSe2 is presented. Electron transmission spectra have been measured for energies up to 50 eV above the Fermi level with k||…
We report on quantitative calculations of the upper critical field $H_{c2}$ for clean type-II superconductors Nb, NbSe$_{2}$, and MgB$_{2}$ using Fermi surfaces from {\em ab initio} electronic structure calculations. The results for Nb and…
Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) was combined with heat capacity measurements to follow the change of superconductivity with systematic Al doping of MgB$_2$. By using x-ray diffraction and Vegard's law to assess the actual Al…
The electrical conductivity anisotropy of the sigma-bands is calculated for the (Mg,Sc)B2 system using a virtual crystal model. Our results reveal that anisotropy drops with relatively little scandium content (< 30%); this behaviour…
We explicitly calculate the density-density response function with conserving vertex corrections for anisotropic multiband systems in the presence of impurities including long-range disorder. The direction-dependence of the vertex…
We investigated the magnetic field (H)-dependent optical conductivity spectra of MgB2 thin film in the far-infrared region. The H-dependences can be explained by the increase of normal metallic regions embedded in the superconducting…
To identify the contributions of the multiband nature and the anisotropy of a microscopic electronic structure to a macroscopic vortex lattice morphology, we develop a method based on the Eilenberger theory near Hc2 combined with the…
We develop a theory of charge transport along the quantum Hall edge proximitized by a "dirty" superconductor. Disorder randomizes the Andreev reflection rendering the conductance of a proximitized segment a stochastic quantity with zero…
Magnetic properties of dirty multiband superconductors near the upper critical field are studied. The parameter $\kappa_2$ characterizing magnetization slope is shown to have a significant temperature variation which is quite sensitive to…
