We have studied the thickness-induced superconductor-to-insulator transition in the presence of a magnetic field for a-NbSi thin films. Analyzing the critical behavior of this system within the dirty boson model, we have found a critical exponents product of $ u_d z$ > 0.4. The corresponding phase diagram in the (H,d) plane is inferred. This small exponent product as well as the non-universal value of the critical resistance found at the transition call for further investigations in order to thoroughly understand these transitions.
We have observed multiple magnetic field driven superconductor to insulator transitions (SIT) in amorphous Bi films perforated with a nano-honeycomb (NHC) array of holes. The period of the magneto-resistance, H=H_M=h/2eS where S is the area of a unit
We show that while orbital magnetic field and disorder, acting individually weaken superconductivity, acting together they produce an intriguing evolution of a two-dimensional type-II s-wave superconductor. For weak disorder, the critical field H_c a
The nature of the magnetic-field driven superconductor-to-insulator quantum-phase transition in two-dimensional systems at zero temperature has been under debate since the 1980s, and became even more controversial after the observation of a quantum-G
The effect of an electric field on the conductance of ultrathin films of metals deposited on substrates coated with a thin layer of amorphous Ge was investigated. A contribution to the conductance modulation symmetric with respect to the polarity of
We have measured the electric transport properties of TiN nanostrips with different widths. At zero magnetic field the temperature dependent resistance R(T) saturates at a finite resistance towards low temperatures, which results from quantum phase s
