Parity Effect in a Small Superconducting Particle
arXiv:cond-mat/9801286 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.58.5213
Abstract
Matveev and Larkin calculated the parity effect on the ground state energy of a small superconducting particle in the regimes where the mean level spacing is either large or small compared to the bulk gap. We perform a numerical calculation which extends their results into the intermediate regime, where the level spacing is of the same order as the bulk gap.
