This topical review summarizes various features of magnetic penetration depth in
unconventional superconductors. Precise measurements of the penetration depth as a …

The authors present a review of recent muon spin rotation (μSR) studies of the vortex state in
type-II superconductors. There are significant gaps in our understanding of this unusual …

In this research, reflectance spectra for a one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystal (PC)
consists of a high-temperature superconductor Hg-1223 and a semiconductor GaAs have …

We show that, under certain conditions, the low temperature behavior of the magnetic
penetration depth λ (T) of a pure d-wave superconductor is determined by nonlocal …

The discovery of superconductivity at 30 K by Bednorz and Müller in 1986 ignited an
explosion of interest in high temperature superconductivity. The initial development rapidly …

A novel interplay between d-wave superconducting order parameter symmetry and the
underlying Cu 3 d orbital based electronic structure of copper oxides leads to a striking …

This volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of d-wave
superconductivity, focused on d-wave pairing symmetry and its physical consequences in …

Using the transfer matrix method, we study the transmittance of 1D photonic crystals made of
alternated layers of a semiconductor (GaAs) and a high-T c superconductor (HgBa 2 Ca 2 …

The hallmark of superconductivity is the rigidity of the quantum-mechanical phase of
electrons, responsible for superfluid behavior and Meissner effect. The strength of the phase …

Layered superconductors like high-T c cuprates display out-of-plane plasma oscillations
between layers sustained by the weak Josephson coupling among the superconducting …
