Spin-Orbit induced phase-shift in Bi2Se3 Josephson junctions
Spin-Orbit induced phase-shift in Bi2Se3 Josephson junctions
The transmission of Cooper pairs between two weakly coupled superconductors produces a superfluid current and a phase difference; the celebrated Josephson effect. Because of time-reversal and parity symmetries, there is no Josephson current without a phase difference between two superconductors. Reciprocally, when those two symmetries are broken, an anomalous supercurrent …
