Abstract
We have investigated the superconductor-insulator transition (SIT) induced by a disorder of a granular system. The effective energy gap model based on localized Cooper pairs and hopping quasiparticles has been used. The “quasi-reentrant” behavior appears when the metal volume fraction is slightly smaller than the percolation threshold. In particular, we have found the double “quasi-reentrant” behavior with the increased superconducting transition width. This result indicates that the double “quasi-reentrant” behavior should have been observed in a granular system with a large transition width. Besides, the “quasi-reentrant” behavior has been flattened when applying the magnetic field. In order to clarify the method is suitable for a granular system, the theoretical result has been compared with the experimental value of Pb\(_x\)(SiO\(_2\))\(_{1-x}\) granular film. It has almost no difference near the minimum value and the differences onset at lower temperatures due to the negative electroresistance effect. The “quasi-reentrant” behavior becomes unobvious due to the Copper pairs destroyed by the magnetic field.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism serves as the international forum for the most current research and ideas in these fields. This highly acclaimed journal publishes peer-reviewed original papers, conference proceedings and invited review articles that examine all aspects of the science and technology of superconductivity, including new materials, new mechanisms, basic and technological properties, new phenomena, and small- and large-scale applications. Novel magnetism, which is expanding rapidly, is also featured in the journal. The journal focuses on such areas as spintronics, magnetic semiconductors, properties of magnetic multilayers, magnetoresistive materials and structures, magnetic oxides, etc. Novel superconducting and magnetic materials are complex compounds, and the journal publishes articles related to all aspects their study, such as sample preparation, spectroscopy and transport properties as well as various applications.
