Measurements of the $IV$ characteristics of site-diluted Josephson-junction arrays have revealed intriguing effects of percolative disorder on the phase transition and the vortex dynamics in a two-dimensional XY system. Different from other…
We have used Monte Carlo simulations, combined with finite-size scaling and two different real-space renormalization group approaches, to study a fully frustrated three-dimensional XY model on a simple cubic lattice. This model corresponds…
We discuss the superconductor to normal phase transition in an infinite-layered type-II superconductor in the limit where the Josephson coupling between layers is negligible. We model each layer as a neutral gas of thermally excited pancake…
B-T phase diagram and phase transitions of interlayer Josephson vortices are investigated. For magnetic fields above a critical value, we find a Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) type intermediate phase characterized by in-plane two-dimensional,…
We have studied a quantum Hamiltonian that models an array of ultrasmall Josephson junctions with short range Josephson couplings, $E_J$, and charging energies, $E_C$, due to the small capacitance of the junctions. We derive a new effective…
We present experimental investigations of transport properties in the insulating phase of two-dimensional Josephson-junction arrays (JJAs) by systematically changing the ratio of Josephson energy $E_\mathrm{J}$ and charging energy…
We use a driven Monte Carlo dynamics in the phase representation to determine the linear resistivity and current-voltage scaling of a two-dimensional Josephson-junction array at an irrational flux quantum per plaquette. The results are…
The 2d superfluid (complex $\phi ^4$ theory in two dimensions) undergoes Kosterlitz-Thouless transition driven by phase fluctuations of the superfluid order parameter. We study the transition by Monte Carlo simulations and also develop an…
We study the phase diagram and quantum critical properties of a resistively shunted Josephson junction array in one dimension from a strong coupling analysis. After mapping the dissipative quantum phase model to an effective sine-Gordon…
We examine in theory and by numerical simulation, the dynamic process of switching from a zero voltage to a finite voltage state in a Josephson junction circuit. The theoretical model describes small capacitance Josephson junctions which…
The quantum XY model shows a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition between a phase with quasi long-range order and a disordered one, like the corresponding classical model. The effect of the quantum fluctuations is to weaken the…
These lectures provide a pedagogical introduction to the theory of continuous quantum phase transitions. Various two-dimensional condensed matter systems, such as a superconducting film, a quantum Hall liquid, and an array of Josephson…
The phase diagram of a two-dimensional Josephson array of mesoscopic objects is examined. Quantum fluctuations in both the modulus and phase of the superconducting order parameter are taken into account within a lattice boson Hubbard model.…
The mixed phase of extremely type-II layered superconductors in perpendicular magnetic field is studied theoretically via the layered XY model with uniform frustration. A partial duality analysis is carried out in the weak-coupling limit.…
