Macroscopic character of composite high temperature superconducting wires
S. A. Kivelson, B. Spivak
The "d-wave" symmetry of the superconducting order in the cuprate high temperature superconductors is a well established fact, and one which identifies them as "unconventional." Ho…
Anomalous Transport Phenomena in Superconductors
Songci Li, A. V. Andreev, B. Z. Spivak
Spontaneous breaking of time-reversal symmetry in superconductors with the symmetry of the order parameter allows for a class of effects which are analogous to the anoma…
Theory of disordered unconventional superconductors
A. Keles, A. V. Andreev, S. A. Kivelson +1
In contrast to conventional s-wave superconductivity, unconventional (e.g. p or d-wave) superconductivity is strongly suppressed even by relatively weak disorder. Upon approaching…
Electron transport in p-wave superconductor-normal metal junctions
A. Keles, A. V. Andreev, B. Z. Spivak
We study low temperature electron transport in p-wave superconductor-insulator-normal metal junctions. In diffusive metals the p-wave component of the order parameter decays expone…
d-wave to s-wave to normal metal transitions in disordered superconductors
B. Spivak, P. Oreto, S. A. Kivelson
We study suppression of superconductivity by disorder in d-wave superconductors, and predict the existence of (at least) two sequential low temperature transitions as a function of…
Conductance of d-wave superconductor/normal metal/d-wave superconductor junctions
D. A. Pesin, A. V. Andreev, B. Spivak
We develop a theory of the conductance of superconductor/normal metal/superconductor junctions in the case where the superconducting order parameter has d-wave symmetry. At low tem…
Mesoscopic effects in superconductor-ferromagnet-superconductor junctions
A. Yu. Zyuzin, B. Spivak, M. Hruska
We show that at zero temperature the supercurrent through the superconductor - ferromagnetic metal - superconductor junctions does not decay exponentially with the thickness of…
