Local Density of States in Superconductor - Ferromagnetic Hybrid Systems
In this Letter we discuss various properties of the local density of states (DOS) for a superconductor-ferromagnet hybrid system. The DOS is modified at small energies on both sides of the interface. Due to the interplay of superconductivity and ferromagnetism, the local DOS depends on the spin direction. The spin polarization effects extend over a long distance from the interface both in the s...
متن کاملLocal density of states in a dirty normal metal connected to a superconductor.
A superconductor in contact with a normal metal not only induces superconducting correlations, known as the proximity effect, but also modifies the density of states at some distance from the interface. These modifications can be resolved experimentally in microstructured systems. We therefore study the local density of states N(E ,x) of a superconductor–normal-metal heterostructure. We find a ...
متن کاملSize effects in the density of states in normal-metal-superconductor and superconductor-normal-metal-superconductor junctions.
The quasiparticle local density of states ~LDOS! is studied in clean normal-metal–superconductor ~NS! and superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor ~SNS! junctions with increasing transverse size, from quasione-dimensional to three-dimensional. It is shown that finite transverse dimensions are related to pronounced effects in the LDOS, such as fast oscillations superimposed on the quasiparticl...
متن کاملTunneling density of states, pair correlation, and Josephson current in spin-incoherent Luttinger-liquid/superconductor hybrid systems
We study a hybrid system consisting of a spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid adjoined at one or both ends to a superconductor. We find that the tunneling density of states diverges at low energies and exhibits a universal frequency dependence independent of the strength of the interactions in the system. We show that in spite of exponentially decaying pair correlations with distance into the spin-...
متن کاملUnconventional Josephson effect in hybrid superconductor-topological insulator devices.
We report on transport properties of Josephson junctions in hybrid superconducting-topological insulator devices, which show two striking departures from the common Josephson junction behavior: a characteristic energy that scales inversely with the width of the junction, and a low characteristic magnetic field for suppressing supercurrent. To explain these effects, we propose a phenomenological...
