Low Temperature Electronic Properties of Conducting Solids

这个项目是针对超导体弱耦合效应的性质，重点是玻璃超导行为，涡旋钉钉和混沌。计划进行两类实验。第一种方法是测量超导Josephson阵列和邻近效应结的动力学特性。在这种情况下，超导阵列是显示颗粒超导薄膜许多特征的模型系统，具有在微观水平上精确表征的优势。另一类实验包括测量二维in /InOx薄膜和高Tc超导体的三维样品中的涡流和通量钉住效应。

This project is directed at the properties of weak coupling effects in superconductors, with emphasis on glassy superconductive behavior, vortex pinning, and chaos. Two categories of experiments are planned. The first involves measurements of the dynamical properties of superconducting arrays of Josephson and proximity effect junctions. In this context, superconducting arrays are model systems that display many of the features of granular superconducting films, with the advantage of accurate characterization at the microscopic level. The other category of experiments involves measurements of vortex and flux pinning effects in two-dimensional In/InOx films and three-dimensional samples of high Tc superconductors.
