For many applications of polycrystalline high-Tc superconductors the small critical currents of the grain boundaries pose a severe problem. To solve this problem we derive novel designs for the microstructure of coated conductors.

We investigate the description of current transfer in polycrystalline superconductors by percolation theory and its limitations. Various computer models that have been proposed are reviewed and related to the experimental and theoretical…

We study the temperature dependence of the superconductor-insulator transition in granular superconductors. Empirically, these systems are characterized by very broad resistance tails, which depend exponentially on the temperature, and the…

Study of various interesting features related to the nonlinear electrical response in composite materials through a model bond percolative system.

The DC-response, namely the $I$-$V$ and $G$-$V$ charateristics, of a variety of composite materials are in general found to be nonlinear. We attempt to understand the generic nature of the response charactersistics and study the…

The current-voltage ($I$-$V$) characteristics of break junctions of polycrystalline La$_{1.85}$Sr$_{0.15}$CuO$_4$, Y$_{0.75}$Lu$_{0.25}$Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$, Bi$_{1.8}$Pb$_{0.3}$Sr$_{1.9}$Ca$_2$Cu$_3$O$_x$ and composite…

While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…

The interface properties of high-temperature cuprate superconductors have been of interest for many years, and play an essential role in Josephson junctions, superconducting cables, and microwave electronics. In particular, the maximum…

Based on experimental results and our previous theoretical work, a microscopic theory of high temperature superconductivity is conjectured. In this conjecture, superconducting and antiferromagnetic long-range orders are driven by interlayer…

We consider dc-conductivity $\sigma$ of a mixture of small conducting and insulating grains slightly below the percolation threshold, where finite clusters of conducting grains are characterized by a wide spectrum of sizes. The charge…

We propose a theory of the origin of transport nonuniversality in disordered insulating-conducting compounds based on the interplay between microstructure and tunneling processes between metallic grains dispersed in the insulating host. We…

Flux pinning scaling laws were developed to explain the observed increase in the critical current density Jc caused by increased density of grain boundaries in polycrystalline low temperature superconductors (LTS) such as Nb3Sn. For four…

There is a renewed surge in percolation-induced transport properties of diverse nano-particle composites (cf. RSC Nanoscience & Nanotechnology Series, Paul O'Brien Editor-in-Chief). We note in particular a broad interest in nano-composites…

The mechanism of superconductivity caused by the electron-vibrational centres and their inherent oscillations in crystals and solid-state structures near room temperature and at higher temperatures - hyperconductivity is discussed and…

Percolation theory and the associated conductance networks have provided deep insights into the flow and transport properties of a vast number of heterogeneous materials and media. In practically all cases, however, the conductance of the…

Numerical methods are developed to solve the problem of abnormal changes of current (conductivity) in polymer composite films which may be used as current, pressure or temperature sensors. General nonlinear model includes the heat equation,…

A model of superconductivity is proposed taking into account repulsive particle interaction, mesoscopic phase separation and softening of crystalline lattice. These features are typical of many high-temperature superconductors. The main…

The p-wave and $p+ip$-wave holographic superconductors with fixed DC supercurrent are studied by introducing a non-vanishing vector potential. We find that close to the critical temperature $T_c$ of zero current, the numerical results of…

This paper gives a review of studies of superconductors with a porosity above 50%. The pores in such superconducting materials provide refrigerant penetration, efficient heat dissipation and stable operation. Methods for the synthesis of…

This paper discusses some of the major experimental features of microwave nonlinearity in high temperature superconductors, both intrinsic and extrinsic. The case is made for solving the problem of extrinsic nonlinearity through the use of…
