The results of theoretical investigations of the electronic structure and transport properties of vortex states in mesoscopic superconductors with sizes of several coherence lengths are reviewed. The features of the electronic spectra of multiquantum vortices and vortex molecules, as well as mechanisms of thermal transport along vortex lines, are considered by taking into account boundary effects.  相似文献

Andreev bound states at the surface of superconductors are expected for any pair potential showing a sign change in different k-directions with their spectral weight depending on the relative orientation of the surface and the pair potential. We report on the observation of Andreev bound states in high temperature superconductors (HTS) employing tunneling spectroscopy on bicrystal grain boundary Josephson junctions (GBJs). The tunneling spectra were studied as a function of temperature and applied magnetic field. The tunneling spectra of GBJ formed by YBa2Cu3O (YBCO), Bi2Sr2CaCu2O(BSCCO), and La1.85Sr0.15CuO4 (LSCO) show a pronounced zero bias conductance peak that can be interpreted in terms of Andreev bound states at zero energy that are expected at the surface of HTS having a d-wave symmetry of the order parameter. In contrast, for the most likely s-wave HTS Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4-y (NCCO) no zero bias conductance peak was observed. Applying a magnetic field results in a shift of spectral weight from zero to finite energy. This shift is found to depend nonlinearly on the applied magnetic field. Further consequences of the Andreev bound states are discussed and experimental evidence for anomalous Meissner currents is presented.

The electric field gradients (EFGs) at all atomic positions of YBa2Cu3O7 and YBa2Cu3O6 are calculated on the basis of full potential linearized augmented plane wave calculations by an ab initio method. Cood agreement with experimental EFGs is found for all oxygen positions in YBa2Cu3O7 and the Cu1 position in both compounds, while for the Cu2 position in the superconductor the symmetry of the EFG agrees with experiment but the magnitude of our theoretical EFG is only half the experimental value. A small transfer of 0.07 electrons from d(x2−y2) to d(z2) symmetry would be sufficient to achleve agreement with experiment. Thus the underlying local density approximation is not perfect, but remains a very accurate method for describing ground state properties.  相似文献

In d-wave superconductors, the electronic density of states (DOS) induced by a vortex exhibits a divergence at low energies: N vortex(E) ∼1/|E|. This divergence is the result of gap nodes in the spectrum of excitation outside the vortex core. The heat capacity in two regimes, T 2/T c 2 B/B c 2 and T 2/T c 2 B/B c 2, is discussed.

Based on a phenomenological model with competing spin-density-wave (SDW) and extended s-wave superconductivity, the vortex states in Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe2As2 are investigated by solving Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations. Our result for the optimally doped compound without induced SDW is in qualitative agreement with recent scanning tunneling microscopy experiment. We also propose that the main effect of the SDW on the vortex states is to reduce the intensity of the in-gap peak in the local density of states and transfer the spectral weight to form additional peaks outside the gap.  相似文献

The symmetry classification of possible singlet and also triplet states in the case of the 2-dim square lattice, and 3-dim tetragonal and orthorhombic lattices is examined. If particle-hole symmetry is present then an additional symmetry classification is possible. However in the lower symmetry crystal structures that actually occur, no distinction on symmetry grounds can be drawn between usuals-wave, extendeds-wave and some of thed-wave states.  相似文献

The influence of the transverse size of a composite wire based on a high-temperature superconductor on the dynamics of its thermoelectrodynamic properties at constant-rate current input has been studied. The physical mechanism behind the formation of stable regimes, which are characterized by the nonuniform distribution of the electric field and transport current over the cross-sectional area of the composite, has been determined. It has been shown that the critical current density of the superconducting composites determined from their current–voltage characteristic have lower and upper boundaries of electric voltages, which outline the allowable measurement range. It has been found that, when the input current completely penetrates into the composite, conditions for its stability are governed by the size effect. The essence of this effect is that conditions for current state stability in superconducting composites with the same cross-sectional area but various cross size differ. The conditions for the absence of unstable states in the composite the cross section of which is partially filled with the transport current have been formulated.  相似文献

We analyze the behavior of the density of states in a singlet s-wave superconductor with weak magnetic impurities in the clean limit. By using the method of optimal fluctuation and treating the order parameter self-consistently we show that the density of states is finite everywhere in the superconducting gap, and that it varies as ln(N(E) proportional to -/E-Delta(0)/((7-d)/4) near the mean field gap edge Delta(0) in a d-dimensional superconductor. In contrast to most studied cases the optimal fluctuation is strongly anisotropic.  相似文献

Inelastic neutron scattering measurements are presented which show the abrupt development of new oxygen lattice vibrations near the doping-induced metal-insulator transition in La(2--x)Sr(x)CuO(4). A direct correlation is established between these lattice modes and the electronic susceptibility (as measured by photoemission) inferring that such modes mix strongly with charge fluctuations. This electron-lattice coupling can be characterized as a localized one-dimensional response of the lattice to short-ranged metallic charge fluctuations.  相似文献

The limiting current-carrying capacity of high-T c superconductor and superconducting tape has been studied in the alternating current states. The features that are responsible for their stable formation have been investigated under the conduction-cooled conditions when the operating peak values of the electric field and the current may essentially exceed the corresponding critical values of superconductor. Besides, it has been proved that these peak values are higher than the values of the electric field and the current, which lead to the thermal runaway phenomenon when the current instability onset occurs in the operating modes with direct current. As a result, the stable extremely high heat generation exists in these operating states, which can be called as overloaded states. The limiting stable peak values of charged currents and stability conditions have been determined taking into account the flux creep states of superconductors. The analysis performed has revealed that there exist characteristic times defining the corresponding time windows in the stable development of overloaded states of the alternating current. In order to explain their existence, the basic thermo-electrodynamics mechanisms have been formulated, which have allowed to explain the high stable values of the temperature and the induced electric field before the onset of alternating current instability. In general, it has been shown that the high-T c superconductors may stably operate in the overloaded alternating current states even under the not intensive cooling conditions at a very high level of heat generation, which is not considered in the existing theory of losses.  相似文献

We report on a numerical study of disorder effects in 2D d-wave BCS superconductors. We compare exact numerical solutions of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) equations for the density of states rho(E) with the standard T-matrix approximation. Local suppression of the order parameter near impurity sites, which occurs in self-consistent solutions of the BdG equations, leads to apparent power-law behavior rho(E) approximately |E|(alpha) with nonuniversal alpha over an energy scale comparable to the single-impurity resonance energy Omega(0). We show that the novel effects arise from static spatial correlations between the order parameter and the impurity distribution.  相似文献

It is shown that pair breaking occurs in a disordered superconductor due to spatial variations of the order parameter, although the system is time reversal invariant. The pair breaking effect is reflected by the occurence of some interesting fine structure in the one particle density of states. Discrete bound states and split off impurity bands show up in the single impurity case and for very dilute alloys, respectively. For finite alloy concentrations the calculations are done within the CPA. Although principally important, the fine structure is concentrated in an energy range too narrow to be detected experimentally.  相似文献

The effect of magnetic flux creep on the formation of resistive states of the composite superconductors has been studied taking into account their self-heating. The obtained results have been compared with the calculations carried out using the existing thermal stabilization theory, which is based on the model of a stepwise transition from the superconducting to normal state. It has been shown that, over a wide range of the superconductor temperature, this model leads to overrated effective electric resistances of the composite. As a result of its stable self-heating, the notions on the critical current, which determine the maximum transport current and on the resistive transition temperature, the higher of which in the transport current begins dividing between the superconductor and matrix, a loss a physical sense at magnetic flux creep, are used in the existing thermal stabilization theory. As a result, the limits of the theory of thermal stabilization of the composite superconductors can be extended if the theory has been used to describe stable sates at currents, which are higher than the conditionally defined critical current of the composite.  相似文献
