Magnetic field-induced “mirage” gap in an Ising superconductor

G Tang, C Bruder, W Belzig - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
Superconductivity is commonly destroyed by a magnetic field due to orbital or Zeeman-
induced pair breaking. Surprisingly, the spin-valley locking in a two-dimensional …

Controlling charge and spin transport in an Ising-superconductor Josephson junction

G Tang, RL Klees, C Bruder, W Belzig - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
An in-plane magnetic field applied to an Ising superconductor converts spin-singlet Cooper
pairs to spin-triplet ones. In this work, we study a Josephson junction formed by two Ising …

Signatures of triplet correlations in density of states of Ising superconductors

M Haim, D Möckli, M Khodas - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
The few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been recently suggested as a
platform for controlled unconventional superconductivity. We study the manifestations of …

Role of electromagnetic gauge-field fluctuations in the selection between chiral and nematic superconductivity

V Gali, RM Fernandes - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
Motivated by the observation of nematic superconductivity in several systems, we revisit the
problem of the leading pairing instability of two-component unconventional superconductors …

Josephson junction of nodal superconductors with a Rashba and Ising spin-orbit coupling

G Cohen, R Seshadri, M Khodas, D Meidan - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
We study the effect of a Rashba spin-orbit coupling on the nodal superconducting phase of
an Ising superconductor. Such nodal phase was predicted to occur when applying an in …

Mechanisms of in-plane magnetic anisotropy in superconducting

M Haim, A Levchenko, M Khodas - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
We present a unifying picture of the magnetic in-plane anisotropies of two-dimensional
superconductors based on transition metal dichalcogenides. The symmetry considerations …
