Metal-to-insulator transition and superconductivity in boron-doped diamond.
The experimental discovery of superconductivity in boron-doped diamond came as a major surprise to both the diamond and the superconducting materials communities. The main experimental results obtained since then on single-crystal diamond epilayers are reviewed and applied to calculations, and some open questions are identified. The critical doping of the metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) was...
متن کاملResonating Valence Bond Mechanism of Impurity Band Superconductivity in Diamond
Superconductivity in an uncompensated boron doped diamond, a very recent observation, is strikingly close to an earlier observation of Anderson-Mott insulator to metal transition, prompting us to suggest an electron correlation driven superconductivity in an impurity band. Random coulomb potential remove a three fold orbital degeneracy of boron acceptor states, resulting in an effective single,...
متن کاملSuperconductivity in CVD diamond films.
A beautiful jewel of diamond is insulator. However, boron doping can induce semiconductive, metallic and superconducting properties in diamond. When the boron concentration is tuned over 3 × 10(20) cm(-3), diamonds enter the metallic region and show superconductivity at low temperatures. The metal-insulator transition and superconductivity are analyzed using ARPES, XAS, NMR, IXS, transport and ...
متن کاملSelected topics related to the transport and superconductivity in boron-doped diamond.
This contribution deals with a few topics closely related to the superconductivity in the heavily boron-doped diamond which are, in our opinion, not properly treated in the current literature. Attention is paid especially to the classification of metallic and insulating state, selection of pairing mechanism, limits of weak coupling approximation and to the influence of granularity on the superc...
متن کاملSpecific heat of aluminium-doped superconducting silicon carbide
The discoveries of superconductivity in heavily boron-doped diamond, silicon and silicon carbide renewed the interest in the ground states of charge-carrier doped wide-gap semiconductors. Recently, aluminium doping in silicon carbide successfully yielded a metallic phase from which at high aluminium concentrations superconductivity emerges. Here, we present a specific-heat study on superconduct...
