  1. 1. Modeling mesoscopic unconventional superconductors

    Författare :Patric Holmvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phase transitions; Andreev bound states; quasiclassical theory; mesoscopic thin-films; spontaneous symmetry breaking; time-reversal symmetry; Unconventional superconductivity; translational symmetry;

    Sammanfattning : High-temperature superconducting materials are often experimentally realized as thin films that can be patterned into devices operating in the mesoscopic regime. On this length scale, various finite-size and surface effects heavily influence the nature of the superconducting state, and can induce new ground states with spontaneously broken symmetries.

  3. 2. Selfconsistent theory of superconductivity in unconventional superconductors

    Författare :Fabian Schrodi; Peter M. Oppeneer; Alex Aperis; Jörg Schmalian; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; superconductivity; unconventional; Eliashberg theory;

    Sammanfattning : Superconductivity is broadly believed to stem from either electron-phonon interaction (EPI) or from purely electronic mechanisms, such as antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations. For many materials the discussion about which of these interactions is the dominant "pairing glue" is still ongoing. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Crystallization of the superconducting phase in unconventional superconductors

    Författare :Patric Holmvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pattern formation; spontaneous symmetry breaking; Andreev bound states; mesoscopic superconductivity; phase crystals; thin superconducting films; phase transitions; non-local Ginzburg-Landau theory; time-reversal symmetry; flat bands; unconventional superconductivity; quasiclassical theory; translational symmetry; cuprates; inhomogeneous superconductivity;

    Sammanfattning : Superconductivity is a macroscopic quantum phenomenon, in the sense that a macroscopic number of electrons form a pair condensate, that occupies a single ground state. The electrons in this state are phase-coherent, breaking global U (1)-symmetry, and spatial variations of the phase imply superflows that usually cost kinetic energy, resulting in a uniform and rigid phase.

  5. 4. Angle-resolved photoemission study of unconventional cuprate superconductors

    Författare :Qinda Guo; Oscar Tjernberg; Andrea Damascelli; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Unconventional superconductivity; cuprate; high harmonic generation; narrow bandwidth light source; spherical grating based monochromator; time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy; Okonventionell supraledning; kuprat; hög övertonsgenerering; ljuskälla med smal bandbredd; sfäriskt gitterbaserad monokromator; tids- och vinkelupplöst fotoemissionsspektroskopi;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding unconventional superconductivity remains one of the most important unsolved problems in physics. A particularly noteworthy case is the copper-based high-temperature superconductor, which stands out due to its remarkably high transition temperature and relatively simple structure. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Transport theory and finite element methods for mesoscopic superconducting devices

    Författare :Kevin Marc Seja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-equilibrium superconductivity; finite element methods; unconventional superconductors; quasiclassical theory; transport theory;

    Sammanfattning : At low temperatures, electrons in a superconductor exhibit pairing correlations that result in a macroscopic, phase-coherent ground state. This leads to peculiar electromagnetic properties such as the flow of dissipationless charge currents and expelling of external magnetic fields. LÄS MER
