On Magnetic Impurities in Gapless Fermi Systems
L. S. Borkowski
In ordinary metals, antiferromagnetic exchange between conduction electrons and a magnetic impurity leads to screening of the impurity spin below the Kondo temperature, . In s…
Multichannel Kondo impurities in superconductors
L. S. Borkowski, P. J. Hirschfeld
We discuss the effect of multichannel Kondo impurities on superconductivity. In the strong coupling regime such impurities are pairbreakers, in contrast to the ordinary Kondo effec…
Distinguishing d-wave from highly anisotropic s-wave superconductors
L. S. Borkowski, P. J. Hirschfeld
Systematic impurity doping in the Cu-O plane of the hole-doped cuprate superconductors may allow one to decide between unconvention al ("d-wave") and anisotropic conventional ("s-w…
Low Temperature Properties of Anisotropic Superconductors with Kondo Impurities
L. S. Borkowski, P. J. Hirschfeld
We present a self-consistent theory of superconductors in the presence of Kondo impurities, using large- slave-boson methods to treat the impurity dynamics. The technique is tes…
