Magnetic flux can penetrate a type-II superconductor in the form of Abrikosov vortices (also
called flux lines, flux tubes, or fluxons) each carrying a quantum of magnetic flux phi 0= h/2e …

IT has been suggested1 that the tensile strength of carbon nanotubes2 might exceed that of
other known fibres because of the inherent strength of the carbon–carbon bond …

The Van Hove singularity (VHS) provides a paradigm for the study of the role of peaks in the
density of states (dos) on electronic properties. More importantly, it appears to play a major …

Explicit and implicit experimental evidence for charge density wave (CDW) presence in high‐
Tc superconducting oxides is analyzed. The theory of CDW superconductors is presented. It …

Superconductivity of Metals and Cuprates covers the basic physics of superconductivity,
both the theoretical and experimental aspects. The book concentrates on important facts and …

The book develops a comprehensive understanding of the surface impedance of the oxide
high-temperature superconductors in comparison with the conventional superconductor …

This paper presents simple correct models of high-temperature superconductor (HTS) film
parameters at microwave frequencies. The models are based on the enhanced two-fluid …

By muon spin rotation we studied the depression in condensate density, ns by Zn
substitution in underdoped, optimal-doped, and overdoped Y 0.8 Ca 0.2 Ba 2 (Cu 1− y Zn y) …

SINCE the discovery of superconductivity in the layered copper oxide materials1, a number
of microscopic models have been proposed. To know which of these should be considered …

A comprehensive study of superconductor-constriction-superconductor contacts, obtained
using the “break-junction” technique in layered superconductors. Depending on the …
