Island formation in disordered superconducting thin films at finite magnetic fields

Y. Dubi, Y. Meir, Y. Avishai

The existence of "superconducting islands" (i.e., locally confined regions with superconducting correlations) in amorphous superconducting thin films can account for numerous exper…

Nature of the superconductor-insulator transition in disordered superconductors

Yonatan Dubi, Yigal Meir, Yshai Avishai

As a superconducting thin film becomes disordered and subject to an increasing magnetic field, a point is reached when it undergoes a transition from a superconducting to an insula…

Superconducting islands, phase fluctuations and the superconductor-insulator transition

Y. Dubi, Y. Meir, Y. Avishai

Properties of disordered thin films are discussed based on the viewpoint that superconducting islands are formed in the system. These lead to superconducting correlations confined…

Tuning phase transition between quantum spin Hall and ordinary insulating phases

Shuichi Murakami, Satoshi Iso, Yshai Avishai +2

An effective theory is constructed for analyzing a generic phase transition between the quantum spin Hall and the insulator phases. Occurrence of degeneracies due to closing of the…

Using time reversal symmetry for sensitive incoherent matter-wave Sagnac interferometry

Y. Japha, O. Arzouan, Y. Avishai +1

We present a theory of the transmission of incoherent guided matter-waves through Sagnac interferometers. Interferometer configurations with only one input and one output port have…
