Formation of electron pairs is essential to superconductivity. For conventional superconductors, tunnelling spectroscopy has established that pairing is mediated by bosonic modes (phonons); a peak in the second derivative of tunnel current…
We present a combined density-functional-perturbation-theory and inelastic neutron scattering study of the lattice dynamical properties of YNi2B2C. In general, very good agreement was found between theory and experiment for both phonon…
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…
We calculate the electronic thermal conductivity in a d-wave superconductor, including both the effect of impurity scattering and inelastic scattering by antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations. We analyze existing experiments, particularly…
Lortz et al. [Phys. Rev. B 73, 024512 (2006)] have utilized specific heat and resistivity measurements as "thermal spectroscopies" to deconvolve the spectrum of the electron-phonon interaction in YB$_6$ assuming a major role of the low…
In conventional superconductors, the electron-phonon coupling plays a dominant role in pairing the electrons and generating superconductivity. In high temperature cuprate superconductors, the existence of the electron coupling with phonons…
In conventional superconductors, the electron pairing that allows superconductivity is caused by exchange of virtual phonons, which are quanta of lattice vibration. For high-transition-temperature (high-Tc) superconductors, it is far from…
Despite recent advances in understanding high-transition-temperature (high-T c) superconductors, there is no consensus on the origin of the superconducting 'glue': that is, the mediator that binds electrons into superconducting pairs. The…
Superconductivity in novel bismuth-sulphur superconductors has attracted large research efforts, both experimental and theoretical, but a consensus on the nature of superconductivity in these materials has yet to be reached. Using density…
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…
Using ultrafast optical techniques, we probe the hole-doping dependence of the electron-boson coupling constant $\lambda$ in Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+\delta}$. In the overdoped region, we observe a correlation between ($\lambda$) and…
Coupling between electrons and phonons (lattice vibrations) drives the formation of the electron pairs responsible for conventional superconductivity. The lack of direct evidence for electron-phonon coupling in the electron dynamics of the…
Phonon-mediated superconductivity is conventionally thought to be capped at a transition temperature $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ no larger than roughly one-tenth of the phonon frequency $\Omega$, a bound rooted in the breakdown of Migdal-Eliashberg…
A detailed interpretation of scanning tunneling spectra obtained on unconventional superconductors enables one to gain information on the pairing boson. Decisive for this approach are inelastic tunneling events. Due to the lack of momentum…
Advances in light sources and time resolved spectroscopy have made it possible to excite specific atomic vibrations in solids and to observe the resulting changes in electronic properties but the mechanism by which phonon excitation causes…
Photoemission spectra of Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+delta} below T_c show two features near the (pi,0) point of the zone: a sharp peak at low energy and a higher binding energy hump. We find that the sharp peak persists at low energy even as one…
In conventional superconductors, phonons glue two electrons with opposite spins to form Cooper pairs and condensation of these pairs leads to the superconductivity. Identifying the underlying mechanism of the high temperature…
We have studied the lattice dynamics, electron-phonon coupling, and superconducting properties of $\alpha$-MoB$_2$, as a function of applied pressure, within the framework of density functional perturbation theory using a mixed-basis…
Two-dimensional (2D) boron has been predicted to show superconductivity. However, intrinsic 2D carbon and phosphorus have not been reported to be superconductors, which, inspires us to seek superconductivity in their mixture. Here we…
We performed scanning tunneling spectroscopic experiments on hole-doped NdBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$. The d$I$/d$V$ curves obtained at 4.2 K are asymmetric with clear peak-dip and hump structures. Energy derivatives of these curves show…
