Onset of superconductivity in the two-dimensional limit

Haviland, D. B., Liu, Y., Goldman, A. M.·1989·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

The onset of superconductivity in homogeneous ultrathin films is found to occur when their normal-state sheet resistance falls below a value close to h/4${e}^{2}$, the quantum resistance for pairs. The data further suggest that in the T\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0 limit such films are either superconducting or insulating. The existence of a threshold in systems which are not granular implies that its explanation involves more general arguments than those which follow from the modeling of films by Josephson-coupled arrays.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
