Bernoulli potential at a superconductor surface

Abstract

The electrostatic Bernoulli potential measured at the surface of a superconductor via Kelvin capacitive coupling is shown to be independent of the pairing mechanism. This contrasts with the Bernoulli potential in the bulk where contributions due to pairing dominate close to $T_c$.
