Spin transport in a normal meta-altermagnetic superconducting nanowire junction

Spin triplet superconductors are considered a promising platform for dissipationless spin transport, where spin currents are carried by spin triplet Cooper pairs. In this paper, we propose that the spin triplet superconductivity and spin supercurrent can be engineered in an altermagnetic superconducting nanowire, where a one-dimensional nanowire is placed on the surface of an s-wave superconductor and in proximity to the altermagnet. Using the nonequilibrium Green's function method, we demonstrate a nonzero equal spin Andreev reflection coefficient at the normal metal-altermagnetic superconducting nanowire interface, thereby verifying the injection of spin triplet Cooper pairs. Furthermore, we systematically investigate the spin transport properties in this hybrid system under a spin bias. Our results demonstrate that these properties can be effectively tuned by the chemical potential and spin bias orientation. Our proposal provides a pathway toward realizing dissipationless spin transport.

Spin Transport in Normal Metal-Ising Superconductor Junction

The combination of spin-orbit coupling and superconductivity induces unconventional spin-triplet correlation in Ising superconductors. We theoretically investigate the spin transport through a normal metal-Ising superconductor junction, showing that Ising superconductors also have the characteristic of spin superconductivity.Due to the existence of spin-triplet Cooper pairs, not only charge supercurrent but also spin supercurrent can transport in Ising superconductors.We analyze the transport process in the junction which is mainly contributed by the equal-spin Andreev reflection and spin-flip reflection, and calculate the spin conductance and the spin injection efficiency under different conditions.Our findings broaden the boundary of spin superconductivity and reveal the potential applications of Ising superconductors in spintronics, especially in controlled long-distance dissipationless spin transport.

Andreev reflection in normal metal/charge-4e superconductor junctions

We investigate the Andreev reflection in a normal metal/charge-4e superconductor junction.Compare with the electron-hole conversion in normal charge-2e superconductors, here four electrons participate simultaneously, enriching the possibility of conversion ways.Using nonequilibrium Green's function method, we obtain a four-particle-type Laudauer-Büttiker formula with generalized charge-4e anomalous Green's function to describe it.We then calculate and clarify the behavior of the Andreev coefficient with various incident energy and show the conductance contributed by it.Our research makes up the blank of research for transport property of charge-4e superconductors and can be served as hallmarks for future experimental verifications.
