These models describe a newly discovered class of supercon- ductors with multiple superconducting gaps, and posses many properties that set them apart from single component models. The work presented here relies on large scale computer simulations using various numerical techniques, but also some analytical methods. In Paper I, Type-1.5 Superconducting State from an Intrinsic Proximity Effect in Two-Band Superconductors, we show that in multiband supercon- ductors, even an extremely small interband proximity effect can lead to a qualitative change in the interaction potential between superconducting vor- tices by producing long-range intervortex attraction. This type of vortex interaction results in an unusual response to low magnetic fields, leading to phase separation into domains of two-component Meissner states and vortex droplets. In paper II, Type-1.5 superconductivity in multiband systems: Effects of interband couplings, we investigate the appearance of Type-1.5 superconduc- tivity in the case with two active bands and substantial inter-band couplings.

  • Theory of Nematic Fractional Quantum Hall State
    Theory of Nematic Fractional Quantum Hall State Yizhi You,1 Gil Young Cho,1 and Eduardo Fradkin1, 2 1Department of Physics and Institute for Condensed Matter Theory, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 1110 West Green Street, Urbana, Illinois 61801-3080, USA 2Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of California Santa Barbara, CA 93106-4030, USA (Dated: July 9, 2018) We derive an effective field theory for the isotropic-nematic quantum phase transition of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states. We demonstrate that for a system with an isotropic background the low-energy effective theory of the nematic order parameter has z = 2 dynamical scaling exponent, due to a Berry phase term of the order parameter, which is related to the non-dissipative Hall viscosity. Employing the composite fermion theory with a quadrupolar interaction between electrons, we show that a sufficiently attractive quadrupolar interaction triggers a phase transition from the isotropic FQH fluid into a nematic fractional quantum Hall phase. By investigating the spectrum of collective excitations, we demonstrate that the mass gap of Girvin-MacDonald-Platzman (GMP) mode collapses at the isotropic-nematic quantum phase transition. On the other hand, Laughlin quasiparticles and the Kohn collective mode remain gapped at this quantum phase transition, and Kohn’s theorem is satisfied. The leading couplings between the nematic order parameter and the gauge fields include a term of the same form as the Wen-Zee term. A disclination of the nematic order parameter carries an unquantized electric charge. We also discuss the relation between nematic degrees of freedom and the geometrical response of the fractional quantum Hall fluid.

  • Who-Was-Johns-Hopkins.Pdf
    Who was Johns Hopkins? hile previously adopted accounts portray Johns Hopkins as an early abolitionist whose father had freed the family’s enslaved people in the early 1800s, recently discovered records offer strong evidence that Johns Hopkins held enslaved people in his home until at least the mid-1800s. More information about the university’s investigation of this history is available at the Hopkins Retrospective website. Johns Hopkins by Thomas C. Corner oil on canvas, 100 by 58 inches, 1896 The Johns Hopkins Hospital, shown here at the time of its completion in 1889, was considered a municipal and national marvel when it opened. It was believed to be the largest medical center in the country with 17 buildings, 330 beds, 25 physicians and 200 employees. As a Baltimore American headline put it on May 7, 1889, the Hospital’s opening day, “Its Aim Is Noble,” and its service would be “For the Good of All Who Suffer.” Johns Hopkins, the Quaker merchant, banker and businessman, left $7 million in 1873 to create The Johns Hopkins University and The Johns Hopkins Hospital, instructing his trustees to create new models and standards for medical education and health care. He was named for his great-grandmother, Margaret Johns, her last name becoming his first (and confusing people ever since). Considering his wealth a trust, Johns into the fields.

  • 1 Johns Hopkins and Slaveholding Preliminary Findings, December 8
    Johns Hopkins and Slaveholding Preliminary Findings, December 8, 2020 Hard Histories at Hopkins hardhistory.jhu.edu Martha S. Jones, Director [email protected] Overview Our research began when a colleague brought to the university’s attention an 1850 US census return for Johns Hopkins: A “slave schedule” that attributed the ownership of four enslaved men (aged 50, 45, 25, and 18) to Hopkins. Preliminary research confirmed that the “Johns Hopkins” associated with this census return was the same person for whom the university was later named.1 This evidence ran counter to the long-told story about Johns Hopkins, one that posited him as the son of a man, Samuel Hopkins, who had manumitted the family’s slaves in 1807. Johns Hopkins himself was said to have been an abolitionist and Quaker, the implication being that he opposed slavery and never owned enslaved people.2 The details of the 1850 census slave schedule for Johns Hopkins have generated new research along four lines of inquiry. How had the university for so long told a story about Hopkins that did not account for his having held enslaved people? Which aspects of the Hopkins family story can be confirmed by evidence? What do we learn about Hopkins and his family when we investigate their relationship to slavery anew? And, who were the enslaved people in the Hopkins households and what can we know about their lives? Our observations are preliminary but important. The US census schedules for 1840 and 1850 report that in those years Johns Hopkins owed enslaved people who were part of his Baltimore household (one person in 1840 and four people in 1850.) The evidence also shows that in 1778 Johns Hopkins the elder – grandfather to Johns Hopkins – manumitted enslaved people (with important qualifications detailed below.) Samuel Hopkins – father to Johns Hopkins – dealt in the labor of free Black children and also may have dealt in slaveholding and manumission, but we have recovered no evidence that he manumitted enslaved people.

  • Quantum Critical Behavior in the Superfluid Density of High-Temperature Superconducting Thin Films
    QUANTUM CRITICAL BEHAVIOR IN THE SUPERFLUID DENSITY OF HIGH-TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTING THIN FILMS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Iulian N. Hetel, Maitrise de Physique et Applications, M.S. Physics ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Thomas R. Lemberger, Adviser Professor Klaus Honscheid Adviser Professor R. Sooryakumar Physics Graduate Program Professor Nandini Trivedi ABSTRACT A central question in the physics of high-temperature superconductors is how su- perconductivity is lost at the extreme ends of the superconducting phase diagram, underdoping and overdoping. When mobile holes are removed from optimally doped cuprates, the transition temperature TC and superfluid density nS(0) decrease in a surprisingly correlated fashion. I succeeded in producing and measuring homoge- neous underdoped high-temperature superconducting films by partially substituting +2 +3 Ca for Y in Y Ba2Cu3O7−δ films with reduced oxygen concentrations in the CuO chains. I test the idea that the physics of underdoped cuprates is dominated by phase fluc- tuations by measuring the temperature dependence of superfluid density nS(T ) and by changing the dimensionality of the system from 3D thick samples to 2D ultrathin films. Thick Y1−xCaxBa2Cu3O7−δ films are in agreement with previous measure- ments of pure Y Ba2Cu3O7−δ samples and do not show any 2D or 3D-XY critical regimes in the temperature dependence of superfluid density. Moreover, the tran- sition temperature has a square-root dependence on absolute superfluid density at zero temperature, rather than showing the predicted linear dependence in the case of strong thermal phase fluctuations.
