A Pedagogical Extension of the One Dimensional Schrödinger's Equation to Symmetric Proximity Effect System Film Sandwiches
B. J. Luke, P. R. Broussard
This study sought to use Schrödigner's equation to model superconducting proximity effect systems of symmetric forms. As N. R. Werthamer noted, [Phys. Rev. \textbf{132} (6), 2441 (…
Parallel Critical Field in Thin Niobium Films: Comparison to Theory
P. R. Broussard
For the first time, a comparison to the predicted behavior for parallel critical field is carried out for the model of Kogan and the model of Hara and Nagai. In this study, thin ni…
Proximity effect in Nb-Mo layered films: Transition temperature and critical current dependence on period
A. E. Walker, J. Veldhorst, D. M. Myers +3
The behavior of the transition temperature and critical current density for a Mo/Nb repeated bilayer system as a function of the number of periods was explored. The measured values…
Pedagogical applications of the one-dimensional Schrödinger's equation to proximity effect systems: Comparison of Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions
P. R. Broussard
Proximity effect systems in superconducting films can be modeled by a one-dimensional Schrödinger equation. Several systems are studied using Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditi…
