During the past 15 years a new field has emerged, which combines superconductivity and
spintronics, with the goal to pave a way for new types of devices for applications combining …

This article reviews odd-frequency (odd-ω) pairing with a focus on superconducting systems.
Since Berezinskii introduced the concept of odd-frequency order in 1974 it has been viewed …

The proximity effect at superconductor-ferromagnet interfaces produces damped oscillatory
behavior of the Cooper pair wave function within the ferromagnetic medium. This is …

This review considers unusual effects in superconductor-ferromagnet structures, in
particular, the triplet component of the condensate generated in those systems. This …

It is well known that the ground state of homogeneous superconducting systems with spin-
orbit coupling in the presence of the Zeeman field is the so-called helical state, which is …

This Colloquium discusses the recent progress in understanding the properties of spin-split
superconductors under nonequilibrium conditions. Recent experiments and theories …

Recent experiments on mesoscopic normal metal/superconductor heterostructures resolve
properties on length scales and at low temperatures such that the temperature is below the …

The long-sought yet elusive Majorana fermion is predicted to arise from a combination of a
superconductor and a topological insulator,,. An essential step in the hunt for this emergent …

The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive pedagogical introduction into
Keldysh technique for interacting out-of-equilibrium fermionic and bosonic systems. The …

We investigate the proximity effect in diffusive superconducting hybrid structures with a spin-
orbit (SO) coupling. Our study is focused on the singlet-triplet conversion and the generation …
