Nano-electronic Realizations of Quantum Bits
Yuriy Makhlin, Gerd Schoen, Alexander Shnirman
Quantum computers could perform certain tasks which no classical computer can perform in acceptable times. Josephson junction circuits can serve as building blocks of quantum compu…
Low-energy quasiparticle states near extended scatterers in d-wave superconductors and their connection with SUSY quantum mechanics
Inanc Adagideli, Paul M. Goldbart, Alexander Shnirman +1
Low-energy quasiparticle states, arising from scattering by single-particle potentials in d-wave superconductors, are addressed. Via a natural extension of the Andreev approximatio…
Resonant states and order-parameter suppression near point-like impurities in d-wave superconductors
Alexander Shnirman, Inanc Adagideli, Paul M. Goldbart +1
We examine the role of order-parameter suppression in the development of low-energy peaks (i.e., resonances) in the tunneling density of states near a non-magnetic impurity in a d-…
