In superconductors, magnetic impurities induce a pair-breaking potential for Cooper pairs,
which locally affects the Bogoliubov quasiparticles and gives rise to Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR …

The purpose of this review is to focus from an experimental point-of-view on the new
physical properties of some of the thinnest superconducting films that can be fabricated and …

Exotic states such as topological insulators, superconductors and quantum spin liquids are
often challenging or impossible to create in a single material,–. For example, it is unclear …

Just like insulators can present topological phases characterized by Dirac edge states,
superconductors can exhibit topological phases characterized by Majorana edge states. In …

Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound states appear when a magnetic atom interacts with a
superconductor. Here, we report on spin-resolved spectroscopic studies of YSR states …

The exchange scattering at magnetic adsorbates on superconductors gives rise to Yu-Shiba-
Rusinov (YSR) bound states. Depending on the strength of the exchange coupling, the …

Tin adatoms on a Si (111) substrate with a one-third monolayer coverage form a two-
dimensional triangular lattice with one unpaired electron per site. These electrons order into …

Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) in two-dimensional (2D) materials has emerged as a powerful
tool for designing spintronic devices. On the one hand, the interest in this respect for …

Abstract In two-dimensional (2D) NbSe2 crystal, which lacks inversion symmetry, strong spin-
orbit coupling aligns the spins of Cooper pairs to the orbital valleys, forming Ising Cooper …

The scattering of superconducting pairs by magnetic impurities on a superconducting
surface leads to pairs of sharp in-gap resonances known as Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) bound …
