Predicted electric field induced surface magnetization of vortex phase of superconductors

We predict a new effect in condensed matter surface magnetization of the vortex phase of a superconductor induced by electric field. The magnetized superconductor should be one of the plates of a plane capacitor on which a voltage has to be applied. Applying alternating voltage to the capacitor, electrostatic induction leads to oscillations of the magnetic moment which has to be measured by electromotive force inducted in a detector coil. The derived explicit formula for the magnetization contains the effective mass of Cooper pairs and a systematic investigation of the predicted magnetization will lead to a creation of an effective Cooper pair mass spectroscopy. For cleaved superconductors this effective mass is a property of the bulk material.

Measurement of the electron charge $q_e$ using Schottky noise. Problem of the 6-th Experimental Physics Olympiad. Sofia 8 December 2018

Several consecutive experiments are described with a printed circuit board PCB set-up, especially designed for these experiments. Doing the consecutive experimental tasks opens up possibility to determine the value of electron charge $q_e.$ The fluctuations of the voltage $U(t)$ should be measured for different illuminations of a photodiode. The voltage is amplified 1 million times $Y=10^6$. The amplified voltage $YU(t)$ is applied to the device, which gives the result of the value of the time averaged square of the voltage $U_\mathrm{S}=\left<(Y U(t))^2\right>/U_0$. This voltage $U_\mathrm{S}$ is measured with a multimeter. The series of measurements gives the possibility to determine the $q_e$ using the well known Schottky formula for the spectral density of the current noise $(I^2)_f=2q_e\left .$ For the junior high school students, the basic problem is to analyze the analog squaring. Students' work is separated and graded in four categories S, M, L, XL divided by age of students. For the last XL categories, the tasks contain problems oriented to physics university education program and include theoretical research of the PCB set-up as an engineering device. This is the problem of EPO6, December 2018 ``Day of the Charge'' considered. EPO6 is organized by Sofia branch of Union of physicists in Bulgaria in cooperation with Faculty of physics of Sofia University and Society of Physicists of Republic of Macedonia.

Master equation for operational amplifiers: stability of negative differential converters, crossover frequency and pass-bandwidth

The time dependent master equation from the seminal article by Ragazzini, Randall and Russell [J. R. Ragazzini, R. H. Randall and F. A. Russell, "Analysis of Problems in Dynamics by Electronic Circuits", Proc. of the I.R.E., Vol. 35, pp. 444--452, (1947)] is recovered as necessary tool for the analysis of contemporary circuits with operational amplifiers. This equation gives the relation between time dependent the output voltage $U_0(t)$ and the difference between the input voltages ($U_{+}(t)$ and $U_{-}(t)$). The crossover frequency $f_0$ is represented the time constant $τ_{_0}$ of this equation. The work of the master equation is illustrated by two typical examples: a) the stability criterion of the devices with negative impedance converters, which we consider as a new result b) the frequency dependence of the amplifiers with operational amplifiers given in the technical specifications without citations of time dependent equation. A simple circuit for determination of $f_0$ is suggested and the method is illustrated by determination of crossover frequency for the low-noise and high speed ADA4898 operational amplifier. It is concluded that for an exact calculation of the pass bandwidth of amplifiers with active filters the 70 years old master equation is a useful technique implicitly included in the contemporary software. The frequency dependent formulae for the amplification coefficient of inverting and non-inverting amplifiers are given for the case of non-zero conductivity between the inputs of the operational amplifiers.
