摘要
我们考虑一个自旋阀,它由两面铁磁绝缘体(FI)之间的超导薄膜(S)组成。在脏极限下,超导体由乌萨德尔方程描述。为两个 S-FI 接口选择了适当的边界条件,通过接口参数自旋混合角来描述。通过对乌萨德尔方程进行数值求解,得到了不同自旋混合角下的状态密度(DOS)。之前的研究表明,这种 FI-S-FI 结构的临界温度取决于 FI 层磁化的相互排列。我们跟踪了铁磁体磁化错位变化时的 DOS 演变,并探究了零偏压峰的产生。DOS特征可能会提供有关三重超导成分在S层内部产生和相互作用的有用信息。
Density of States in the Heterostructure Ferromagnetic Insulator-Superconductor-Ferromagnetic Insulator
We consider a spin valve composed of a superconducting film (S) between two ferromagnetic insulators (FI) on two sides. In the dirty limit, the superconductor is described by Usadel equations. Appropriate boundary conditions were chosen for two S-FI interfaces, which are described via the interface parameter spin mixing angle. By numerically solving the Usadel equations, the density of states (DOS) at different spin mixing angles was obtained. It was shown previously that the critical temperature of such an FI-S-FI structure depends on the mutual alignment of the FI layers’ magnetization. We follow the evolution of DOS at the change of misalignment of ferromagnets magnetization and probe the zero bias peak creation. The DOS characteristic features may give fruitful information about triplet superconducting components creation and interplay inside the S layer.
