Achieving the theoretical depairing current limit in superconducting nanomesh films.
We show the theoretical depairing current limit can be achieved in a robust fashion in highly ordered superconductor nanomesh films having spatial periodicities smaller than both the superconducting coherence length and the magnetic penetration depth. For a niobium nanomesh film with 34 nm spatial periodicity, the experimental critical current density is enhanced by more than 17 times over the ...
متن کاملAndreev probe of persistent current states in superconducting quantum circuits.
Using the extraordinary sensitivity of Andreev interferometers to the superconducting phase difference associated with currents, we measure the persistent current quantum states in superconducting loops interrupted by Josephson junctions. Straightforward electrical resistance measurements of the interferometers give a continuous readout of the states, allowing us to construct the energy spectru...
متن کاملGauge fluctuations in superconducting films
In this paper we consider a type-I superconducting film modeled by the Ginzburg-Landau model, confined between two parallel planes a distance L apart from one another. Our approach is based on the Gaussian effective potential in the transverse unitarity gauge, which allows to treat gauge contributions in a compact form. Using techniques from dimensional and ζ-function regularizations, modified ...
متن کاملQuasiparticle states in superconducting superlattices
Abstract. The energy bands and the global density of states are computed for superconductor / normalmetal superlattices in the clean limit. Dispersion relations are derived for the general case of insulating interfaces, including the mismatch of Fermi velocities and effective band masses. We focus on the influence of finite interface transparency and compare our results with those for transpare...
متن کاملPersistent current in superconducting nanorings.
The superconductivity in very thin rings is suppressed by quantum phase slips. As a result, the amplitude of the persistent current oscillations with flux becomes exponentially small, and their shape changes from sawtooth to a sinusoidal one. We reduce the problem of low-energy properties of a superconducting nanoring to that of a quantum particle in a sinusoidal potential and show that the dep...
