Theory of the Josephson effect in unconventional superconducting junctions with diffusive barriers
We study theoretically the Josephson effect in junctions based on unconventional superconductors with diffusive barriers, using the quasiclassical Green’s function formalism. Generalized boundary conditions at junction interfaces applicable to unconventional superconductors are derived by calculating a matrix current within the circuit transport theory. Applying these boundary conditions, we ha...
متن کاملCircuit theory of unconventional superconductor junctions.
We extend the circuit theory of superconductivity to cover transport and proximity effect in mesoscopic systems that contain unconventional superconductor junctions. The approach fully accounts for zero-energy Andreev bound states forming at the surface of unconventional superconductors. As a simple application, we investigate the transport properties of a diffusive normal metal in series with ...
متن کاملTheory of charge transport in diffusive normal metalÕconventional superconductor point contacts
Tunneling conductance in diffusive normal ~DN! metal/insulator/s-wave superconductor junctions is calculated for various situations by changing the magnitudes of the resistance and Thouless energy in DN and the transparency of the insulating barrier. The generalized boundary condition introduced by Nazarov @Superlattices and Microstructures 25, 1221 ~1999!# is applied, where the ballistic theor...
متن کاملThermal conductance by the inverse proximity effect in a superconductor.
We study heat transport in hybrid lateral normal-metal-superconductor-normal-metal structures. We find the thermal conductance of a short superconducting wire to be strongly enhanced beyond the BCS value due to the inverse proximity effect, resulting from contributions of elastic cotunneling and crossed Andreev reflection of quasiparticles. Our measurements agree with a model based on the quasi...
متن کاملMeissner effect in diffusive normalmetal / d-wave superconductor junctions
The Meissner effect in diffusive normal metal / insulator / d-wave superconductor junctions is studied theoretically in the framework of the Usadel equation under the generalized boundary condition. The effect of midgap Andreev resonant states (MARS) formed at the interface of d-wave superconductor is taken into account. It is shown that the formation of MARS suppresses the susceptibility of th...
