Cooper-pair propagation and superconducting correlations in graphene
J. Gonzalez ; E. Perfetto ;
Date 9 May 2007
Subject Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect (cond-mat.mes-hall); Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
AbstractWe investigate the Cooper-pair propagation and the proximity effect in graphene under conditions in which the distance L between superconducting electrodes is much larger than the width W of the contacts. In the case of undoped graphene, supercurrents may exist with a spatial decay proportional to W^2/L^3. This changes upon doping into a 1/L^2 behavior, opening the possibility to observe a supercurrent over length scales above 1 micron at suitable doping levels. We also show that there is in general a crossover temperature T ~ v_F/k_B L that marks the onset of the strong decay of the supercurrent, and that corresponds to the scale below which the Cooper pairs are not disrupted by thermal effects during their propagation.
