This review provides a theoretical basis for understanding the current-phase relation (CΦR)
for the stationary (dc) Josephson effect in various types of superconducting junctions. The …

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

A superconductor in contact with a normal metal not only induces superconducting
correlations, known as the proximity effect, but also modifies the density of states at some …

Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, we address the problem of the superconductor-
insulator phase transition in homogeneously disordered ultrathin (2–15 nm) films of NbN …

We show that the spin pumping from ferromagnetic insulator into the adjacent metallic spin
sink can be strongly stimulated by the superconducting correlations. The key physical …

We develop a detailed microscopic analysis of electron transport in normal diffusive
conductors in the presence of proximity-induced superconducting correlations. We …

We report on an ab anisotropy of J c∥ b/J c∥ a≅ 1.8 and I c R n∥ b/I c R n∥ a≅ 1.2 in
ramp-edge junctions between untwinned YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 and s-wave Nb. For these …

New scaling behavior has been both predicted and observed in the spontaneous production
of fluxons in quenched Nb-Al/Al ox/Nb annular Josephson tunnel junctions (JTJs) as a …

We investigate the subharmonic energy gap structure (SGS) in coplanar Nb/p-type InAs
(2DEG)/Nb junctions. The junctions are produced by employing a technique which enables …

In this paper, we present a theoretical study of electronic transport in planar Josephson
Superconductor–Normal Metal–Superconductor (SN-N-NS) bridges with arbitrary …
