We study a proximity junction between a conventional s-wave superconductor and a conductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling, with a specific focus on the spin structure of the …

Superconductivity and ferromagnetism are antagonistic forms of order, and rarely coexist. Many interesting new phenomena occur, however, in hybrid superconducting/ferromagnetic …
Combining superconductors (S) and ferromagnets (F) offers the opportunity to create a new class of superconducting spintronic devices. In particular, the S/F interface can be …
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 …
The Josephson effect results from the coupling of two superconductors across a spacer such as an insulator, a normal metal or a ferromagnet to yield a phase coherent quantum state …
The long-range proximity effect in superconductor-ferromagnet (S/F) hybrid nanostructures is observed if singlet Cooper pairs from the superconductor are converted into triplet pairs …
Due to the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) an electric current flowing in a normal metal or semiconductor can induce a bulk magnetic moment. This effect is known as the Edelstein …
In 1933, Meissner and Ochsenfeld reported the expulsion of magnetic flux—the diamagnetic Meissner effect—from the interior of superconducting lead. This discovery was crucial in …
The theory of superconductivity developed by Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer (BCS) explains the stabilization of electron pairs into a spin-singlet, even frequency, state by the …
