Multicomponent superconductivity is realized in multiband superconductors when an
interband pairing interaction is considerably weaker than the intraband interactions. There is …

We report the experimental formation of a fractional vortex generated by using a thin
superconducting bi-layer in the form of a niobium bi-layer, observed as a magnetic flux …

The magnetic-flux quantum (Φ 0) cannot be generally divided into smaller ones in a usual
superconductor. If a subdividing path is present, the science and technology of the …

An ultra-thin superconducting bi-layer is an artificial multi-component superconductor in
which the magnetic flux can be fractionally quantized. The fractionally quantized state is …

There is a current-induced massless mode of an interband phase difference in two-band
superconductors. For a thin wire, the externally applied current always invokes a finite …

A hysteretic specific heat jump at approximately 41 K is found experimentally in the
multilayer cuprate superconductor HgBa2Ca4Cu5O y (Hg-1245), with a superconducting …

A direct current superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) fixed on a recently
developed superconducting bilayer disc is effective for studying fractional magnetic quantum …

Applying a radian phase shift other than 2 π is a key issue for superconducting circuits, such
as flux qubits. Magnetic flux is useful when generating a phase shift. However, to apply a …

Multiband superconductors can have several types of domains that are inhibited in
conventional single-band superconductors. These domains are phase domains and chiral …

Variety of a vortex and lattice of vortex in two-component superconductivity are addressed.
The balance between an energy gain of the magnetic energy forming the" sub-unit flux …
