In analogy to conventional semiconductor diodes, the Josephson diode exhibits superconducting properties that are asymmetric in applied bias. The effect has been investigated in number of systems recently, and requires a combination of…
We study theoretically the current-voltage characteristics (IVCs) of the Josephson field effect transistor - a ballistic SNINS junction with superconducting (S) electrodes confining a planar normal metal region (N), which is controlled by…
Using the "break-junction" technique we prepared and studied superconductor - constriction - superconductor nanocontacts in polycrystalline samples of Fe-based superconductors CeO$_{0.88}$F$_{0.12}$FeAs (Ce-1111; $T_C^{\rm bulk} = 41 \pm 1…
Directional point-contact Andreev-reflection spectroscopy measurements on the Ba$_{0.55}$K$_{0.45}$Fe$_2$As$_2$ single crystals are presented. The spectra show significant differences when measured in the $ab$ plane in comparison with those…
The accurate and proper form of electron-hole excitations and corresponding Dirac-like spinors of monolayer molybdenum disulfide superconductor are exactly obtained. Andreev reflection and resulting subgap conductance in a $MoS_2$-based…
Complete suppression of the native n-type Schottky barrier is demonstrated in Al/InGaAs(001) junctions grown by molecular-beam-epitaxy. This result was achieved by the insertion of Si bilayers at the metal-semiconductor interface allowing…
Superconductor/semiconductor-nanowire hybrid structures can serve as versatile building blocks to realize Majorana circuits or superconducting qubits based on quantized levels such as Andreev qubits. For all these applications it is…
A quantum spin Hall strip where different edges are contacted by $s$-wave superconductors with a phase difference $\phi$ supports Majorana bound states protected by time-reversal symmetry. We study signatures of these states in a…
We propose a new process of magnon-assisted Andreev reflection at a ferromagnetic metal - superconductor interface, which consists of the simultaneous injection of a Cooper pair from the superconductor and the emission of a magnon inside…
Andreev bound states (ABS) occur in Josephson junctions when the total phase of the Andreev and normal reflections is a multiple of $2\pi$. In ballistic junctions with an applied voltage bias, a quasi-particle undergoes multiple Andreev…
We observe a subharmonic gap sturucture (SGS) and the Josephson effect in superconducting scanning tunneling microscope junctions with resistances below 100 kOhm. The magnitude of the n=2 SGS is shown to scale with the square of the…
Particle transport across Josephson junctions is commonly described using a simplifying approximation (often called the Andreev approximation), which assumes that excitations are fixed at the Fermi momentum and only Andreev reflections,…
We theoretically demonstrate unusual features of superconducting proximity effect in gapped graphene which presents a pseudospin symmetry-broken ferromagnet with a net pseudomagnetization. We find that the presence of a band gap makes the…
A mesoscopic hybrid Normal/ Superconducting (NS) ring is characterized by a dense Andreev spectrum with a flux dependent minigap. We measure the linear response to a high frequency flux, in a wide frequency range, with a multimode…
We report the first experimental observation of subgap transport in ferromagnetic insulator/superconductor/insulator/superconductor junctions realized in EuS/Al/AlOx/Al vertical stacks. Differential conductance measurements reveal multiple…
In view of the recent progress in experiments on charge transport through various Josephson junctions made out of graphene, we have made a careful comparison between the theory and some of the available experimental results. Within the…
Phase- and voltage bias-sensitive quasiparticle transport at a double $NIS_1IS_2$ interface is considered. The barriers $I$ range from tunnel to transparent, and the intermediate region $S_1$ has a width comparable to the superconducting…
We report for the first time enhancement of the supercurrent by means of injection in a mesoscopic three terminal planar SNSNS device made of Al on GaAs. When a current is injected from one of the superconducting Al electrodes at an…
Andreev-reflection and tunneling studies have been carried out on a single crystal of underdoped Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4-d (NCCO) by using Ag, Pt-Ir and Nb tips to clarify the symmetry of its order parameter. Surprisingly, we observed in the NCCO,…
