Paramagnetic Instability at Normal-Metal–Superconductor Interfaces
We study the proximity coherence in a mesoscopic normal-metal film in contact with a superconductor. Accounting for a repulsive interaction between the electrons in the normal metal, we find an enhanced local density of states close to the normal-metal–superconductor interface. The sharp peak in the density is pinned to the Fermi energy and leads to spontaneous paramagnetic interface currents. ...
متن کاملEffects due to unconventional pairing in transport through a normal metal- superconductor-normal metal hybrid junction
We explore transport properties of a normal metal-superconductor-normal metal (NSN) junction, where the superconducting region supports mixed singlet and chiral triplet pairings. We show that in the subgapped regime when the chiral triplet pairing amplitude dominates over that of the singlet, a resonance phenomena emerges out where all the quantum mechanical scattering probabilities acquire a v...
متن کاملSuppressed Andreev Reflection at the Normal-Metal / Heavy-Fermion Superconductor CeCoIn5 Interface
In order to probe the order parameter symmetry of the heavy-fermion superconductor (HFS) CeCoIn5, we employ point-contact spectroscopy, where dynamic conductance spectra are taken from a nano-scale junction between a normal-metal (N) Au tip and a single crystal of CeCoIn5. The point-contact junction (PCJ) is formed on a single crystal surface with two crystallographic orientations, (001) and (1...
متن کاملPossibility of reflectionless tunneling crossed transport at normal metal / superconductor double interfaces
– We investigate one dimensional models (the Blonder, Tinkham, Klapwijk model and a tight-binding model) of non local transport at normal metal / superconductor (NS) double interfaces. We find a negative elastic cotunneling crossed conductance, strongly enhanced by additional scatterers away from the interfaces, suggesting the possibility of reflectionless tunneling non local transport at doubl...
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...
