We studied the proximity effect in superconductor/ferromagnet structures. Both singlet and triplet superconducting components are induced in the ferromagnet, enhancing conductance below the critical temperature.

Area of Science:

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Superconductivity
  • Spintronics

Background:

  • Proximity effect in superconductor/ferromagnet (S/F) structures is crucial for understanding emergent phenomena.
  • Magnetization inhomogeneity at the S/F interface can significantly alter superconducting properties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the proximity effect in S/F structures with localized magnetization inhomogeneity.
  • To investigate the induction of both singlet and triplet superconducting components in the ferromagnet.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical analysis of the proximity effect.
  • Modeling of superconducting condensate induction in ferromagnets.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated induction of both singlet and triplet superconducting components in the ferromagnet.

  • Singlet component penetration depth depends on the exchange field (ξ(h) = sqrt[D/h]).
  • Triplet component penetrates over a longer distance, significantly increasing ferromagnet conductance below Tc.

    • Conclusions:

    • Localized magnetization inhomogeneity drives significant proximity effects in S/F systems.
    • Triplet superconductivity induction is key to enhanced ferromagnet conductance.
    • Findings are relevant for novel superconducting and spintronic devices.
