Topological semimetals and nodal superconductors
… such as topological semimetals and nodal superconductors. We systematically study these gapless topological phases described by the Bloch and Bogoliubov-de Gennes Hamiltonians. We discuss a generalized bulk-boundary correspondence, which relates the topological properties in the bulk of …

Current flow in inhomogeneous superconductors
"The change of normal current flow into supercurrent flow is examined in a number of problems in which the pair potential of the superconductor can vary spatially. We examine approximate solutions to the Bogoliubov equations in the limits that the pair potential, ~('f), varies quickly or slowly …

Transport properties of anisotropic superconductors
In some heavy-fermion compounds (UPt3, and UBe13 under pressure) the normal state transport properties at low temperatures behave qualitatively as one would expect if electron-impurity interactions were the dominant source of scattering. The experimental data on ultrasonic attenuation and thermal …

Non-linear conduction in superconductors
… field dependence of the surface impedance of superconductors, with particular reference to tin. In chapter 1 the predictions of the simple theory for the behaviour of the surface impedance for different frequencies and fieid configurations are described and compared with the results of …

A study of holographic superconductors
… is investigated more extensively for s-wave superconductors. We consider a gravitational theory with a black hole solution in anti de Sitter spacetime, coupled to an Abelian-Higgs system in (d + 1)-dimensions. A wide range of negative mass squared for the scalar field that satisfied the …

Orbital order in iron-based superconductors
… and the magnetic transitions in the iron-based superconductors. We will discuss this orbital order in the framework of the local-itinerant dichotomy. First, due to the spatial anisotropy of the occupied orbitals that form the local moments, the magnetic exchange constants acquire dramatically …

Penetration Depth Studies of Unconventional Superconductors
… penetration depth λ of various unconventional superconductors have been measured down to ~0.1 K using a tunnel-diode based, self-inductive technique at 21 and 28 MHz. The samples measured are the heavy-fermion superconductors CeCoIn5 and PrOs4Sb12, the rare-earth borocarbides RENi2B2C (RE = Y, …

Elementary excitations in heavy-fermion superconductors
… of the elementary excitations in heavy-fermion superconductors, under the hypothesis that the Cooper pairs are in a relative p-wave or d-wave. First, all p-wave and d-wave states are classified in the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling and crystal fields, which are important effects in …

Penetration depth measurements of organic superconductors
… that these samples are robust dirty d-wave superconductors like their undeuterated counterpart. With abnormally large penetration depths resulting from traditional analysis, an aluminum plating technique was used to measure the absolute penetration depth of deuterated κ-(ET)2Cu[N(CN)2]Br. …

Thermal conductivity of superconductors below 1K
The thermal conductivity of a metal is dependent on many parameters, and this is particularly true of a superconductor. Only a few of these parameters can be systematically varied in an investigation occupying a finite time. For that reason, this dissertation lays no claim to completness, and as …

Applications of Pulse-Magnetised Bulk Superconductors
… and microscopic examination of matter. Superconductors have proved to be the most economical form of generating magnetic fields when strong magnetic fields are required. In recent times, the (RE)BaCu3O(7-δ) [(RE)BCO] class of high-temperature superconductors in bulk form have been shown …
