Universal upper bound for the entropy of superconducting vortices and the Nernst effect
M. C. Diamantini, C. A. Trugenberger, V. Vinokur
We show that the entropy per quantum vortex per layer in superconductors in external magnetic fields is bounded by the universal value k_B ln 2, which explains puzzling results of…
Effective magnetic monopole mechanism for localized electron pairing in HTS
M. C. Diamantini, C. A. Trugenberger, V. M. Vinokur
The mechanism responsible for spatially localized, strong coupling electron pairing characteristic of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) remains elusive and is a subject of hot…
The superconductor-insulator transition in absence of disorder
M. C. Diamantini, C. A. Trugenberger, V. M. Vinokur
We provide a microscopic-level derivation of earlier results showing that, in the critical vicinity of the superconductor-to-insulator transition (SIT), disorder and localization b…
