Cooper pair splitting in diffusive magnetic SQUIDs


Abstract in English

We study Josephson junctions with weak links consisting of two parallel disordered arms with magnetic properties -- ferromagnetic, half-metallic or normal with magnetic impurities. In the case of long links, the Josephson effect is dominated by mesoscopic fluctuations. In this regime, the system realises a $varphi_0$ junction with sample-dependent $varphi_0$ and critical current. Cooper pair splitting between the two arms plays a major role and leads to $2Phi_0$ periodicity of the current as a function of flux between the arms. We calculate the current and its flux and polarization dependence for the three types of magnetic links.
