چکیده
Nonreciprocity in superconductors is attracting much interest owing to its fundamental importance as well the potential applicability engineering. In this paper, we generalize previous theories of intrinsic superconducting diode effect (SDE) and microscopically elucidate relationship with nonreciprocity transition lines under supercurrent. We derive a general formula for SDE by using phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory thereby show that determined relative angle between magnetic field an effective anti-symmetric spin-orbit coupling defined from coefficients. The obtained offers convenient criterion obtain finite SDE. also study nonreciprocal phase transitions $s$-wave $d$-wave mean-field theory. It established sign reversal accompanied crossover helical superconductivity feature irrespective system details. temperature-magnetic-field diagram supercurrent, clarify generally accompanies crossings positive negative current directions. Furthermore, phases supercurrent even become re-entrant moderate strength electric current, implying current-induced first-order transitions. Our findings establish control parameter powerful probe properties related finite-momentum Cooper pairs.

Silicon optical diode with 40 dB nonreciprocal transmission.
A passive all-silicon optical diode is demonstrated to realize a record high nonreciprocal transmission ratio (NTR) of 40 dB. Individual microrings that make up the device are experimentally studied to explain the nonlinear power dynamics. There is a compromise between the NTR and insertion loss, and possible solutions for further improvements are discussed. This work provides a way to realize ...
متن کاملCasimir energy and the superconducting phase transition
We study the influence of Casimir energy on the critical field of a superconducting film, and we show that by this means it might be possible to directly measure, for the first time, the variation of Casimir energy that accompanies the superconducting transition. It is shown that this novel approach may also help clarifying the long-standing controversy on the contribution of TE zero modes to t...
متن کاملUltrafast Optoelectronic Study of Superconducting Transmission Lines
A current and temperature controlled delay in the time of flight of electrical pulses in YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) spiral transmission lines has been studied by using ultrafast optoelectronic sampling techniques. The transmission line was configured in a stripline type on LaAlO3 substrate. The propagation time of ultrafast electrical pulses through the transmission line was measured as a function of t...
متن کاملK anomaly and its effect on the superconducting and magnetic transition in deuterated k - „ BEDT - TTF
In this paper, we report careful transport and magnetic measurements on single crystals of deuterated k-~ET!2Cu@N~CN!2!#Br. By cooling the sample at different rates, it is found that cooling through 80 K has a dramatic effect on the normal state metal-insulator transition and the superconducting transition temperatures. In-plane resistivity depends strongly on the cooling rate for temperatures ...
متن کاملNonreciprocal and magnetically scanned miniaturized leaky-wave antennas using coupled transmission lines
This paper presents a new class of magnetically scanned leaky wave antennas (LWAs), incorporating ferrite (or possibly magnetoelectric composite), for wide angle beamsteering. Using the ferrite’s tunable permeability beamsteering is achieved by controlling the external bias field. This is unlike most leaky-wave antennas requiring frequency modulation to steer the beam. Our first design is based...
