Electrodynamics Of Quantum Critical Conductors And Superconductors

Download or read book Electrodynamics of Quantum-Critical Conductors and Superconductors written by Uwe Santiago Pracht and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents and discusses recent optical low-temperature experiments on disordered NbN, granular Al thin-films, and the heavy-fermion compound CeCoIn5, offering a unified picture of quantum-critical superconductivity. It provides a concise introduction to the respective theoretical models employed to interpret the experimental results, and guides readers through in-depth calculations supplemented with supportive figures in order to both retrace the interpretations and span the bridge between experiment and state-of-the art theory.
