This research work focuses on the theoretical investigation of the upper critical magnetic field,HC2; Ginzburg-Landau coherence length,ξGL(T); and Ginzburg-Landau penetration depth,λGL(T), for the two-band iron based superconductorsBaFe2(As1-xPx)2,NdO1-xFxFeAs, and LiFeAs. By employing the phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equation for the two-band superconductorsBaFe2(As1-xPx)2,NdO1-xFxFeAs, and LiFeAs, we obtained expressions for the upper critical magnetic field,HC2; GL coherence length,ξGL; and GL penetration depth,λGL, as a function of temperature and the angular dependency of upper critical magnetic field. By using the experimental values in the obtained expressions, phase diagrams of the upper critical magnetic field parallel,HC2∥c, and perpendicular,HC2⊥c, to the symmetry axis (c-direction) versus temperature are plotted. We also plotted the phase diagrams of the upper critical magnetic field,HC2versus the angleθ. Similarly, the phase diagrams of the GL coherence length,ξGL, and GL penetration depth,λGL, parallel and perpendicular to the symmetry axis versus temperature are drawn for the superconductors mentioned above. Our findings are in agreement with experimental observations.

Measurements of the magnetoresistivity, Seebeck, Nernst and Hall coefficients in Bi:2212 superconductors doped with Ho and Zn are reported. The critical temperature and the transport coefficients depend strongly on the Ho and Zn contents. The tails of the transport coefficients versus temperature curves are caused by fluctuation effects, which increase with increasing magnetic field. An anomalous suppression of superconductivity at x = 0.25–0.35 and y = 0.025–0.032 was also found when the hole concentration per Cu is P H = 1/8 and the transport properties exhibit metallic behavior. It was found that dB c2 /dT = -2.4 ± 0.2 T/K , corresponding to a Ginzburg–Landau coherence length ξ = 15 Å. The Hall resistivity ρxy scaling with the longitudinal resistivity ρxx as [Formula: see text] with α ≈ 1.8 is in agreement with the theory of Vinokur et al. The experimental data in the mixed state are in agreement with the prediction of the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau theory.

We quantitatively study the effect of growth-induced reduction of long range structural order on the superconducting transition in epitaxial YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6.9 films. The corresponding reduction of structural coherence length rc is determined from the width of X-ray diffraction rocking curves. Tc measurements in the films give evidence for the validity of the empirical scaling relation ΔTc~ rc,ab-2, where ΔTc is the disorder-induced reduction of Tc and rc,ab is the structural coherence length in the ab-plane. To explain this algebraic law we propose a simple phenomenological model based on the disorder-induced localization of the charge carriers within each ordered domain of size rc,ab. This picture enables us to precisely determine the Ginzburg-Landau superconducting coherence length in the ab-plane, and we obtain ξab=1.41±0.04 nm.

The paper presents the results of a study of the properties of long cylindrical superconductors with a diameter of the order of coherence length ξ, performed in the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau theory (GL). Boundary conditions of general form are used for solution of the GL equa-tion for superconducting order parameter. Using such boundary conditions allows us to take into account the influence of the cylinder boundary on its superconducting properties. This ap-proach is important for small-diameter cylinders, whose properties significantly depend on the properties of their boundaries.

We have performed a study of magnetoresistivity, Seebeck, Nernst and Hall effects in the mixed state and in the fluctuation regime above T c 0 for Bi:2223 bulk doped with Ga (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.05), prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method, in magnetic fields between 0 and 5 T and in the temperature range 5–120 K. It was found that critical temperatures, the Hall concentration, and the Nernst and Seebeck coefficients depend strongly on the Ga contents in the samples. The Hall resistivity ρxy showed a sign anomaly in the mixed state and scaled with longitudinal resistivity ρxx with a power coefficient β ≅ 2. The experimental data are in agreement with the predictions of the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau theory.

The penetration depth λ and the coherence length ξ in Rb 3 C 60 fullerene are determined by means of magnetic measurements in fields up to 50 kOe. For the Ginzburg-Landau coherence length the estimate ξ GL (0)=23 Å is obtained, while the magnitude of λ GL (0) extracted from the high-field data turns out to lie between 1200 and 1400 Å, with the upper value being more likely. Non-superconducting diamagnetic susceptibility is also measured and found to be equal to −(0.60±0.02)×10−5 which is an order of magnitude higher than that of undoped fullerene.

Using electromagnetic duality, the isocolor charge-dyon interactions were studied in restricted quantum chromodynamics (RCD) in terms of current-current correlations in the magnetic gauge using the dielectric and permeability parameters of the associated vacuum. The resulting 1/k4 behaviour of the dual propagators is interpreted as a signature of confinement for the corresponding colored fluxes of the theory. Evaluating the vortex solutions of RCD semi-quantitatively, in accordance with Higgs-Ginzburg-Landau theory, expressions for London penetration depth, coherence length, and associated flux energy functions for types I and II superconducting media are derived and an analogy of the type of superconducting medium with the bag model and string picture of hadrons is discussed.PACS Nos.: 11.30 Jw, 14.80 Hv, 12.38 Aw

Effects of the order parameter symmetries on the cutoff parameter ξh (determining the magnetic field distribution) in the mixed state are investigated in the framework of quasiclassical Eilenberger theory for isotropic s±, s++ and anisotropic dx2-y2-wave superconducting pairings. These symmetries are proposed for the pairing state of the Fe -pnictides. In s± pairing symmetry, the gap function has opposite sign at the electron and hole pockets of the Fermi surface, it is connected with interband antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations. In s++ pairing symmetry, the gap function has the same sign at the Fermi surface, it is mediated by moderate electron–phonon interaction due to Fe -ion oscillation and the critical orbital fluctuation. The dx2-y2 pairing symmetry can rise from intraband antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation in strongly hole overdoped iron pnictide KFe 2 As 2 and ternary chalcogenides. The s± pairing symmetry results in different effects of intraband (Γ0) and interband (Γπ) impurity scattering on ξh. It is found that ξh/ξc2 value decreases with Γ0 leading to the values much less than those predicted by the analytical Ginzburg–Landau (AGL) theory for high Γ0. At very high Γ0, the interband scattering suppresses ξh/ξc2 considerably below one in the whole field range making it flat for both s± and s++ pairing symmetries. Scaling of the cutoff parameter with the electromagnetic coherence length shows the importance of the nonlocal effects in mixed state. The small values of ξh/ξc2 were observed in μSR measurements of Co -doped BaFe 2 As 2. If Γ0 and Γπ are small and equal than the ξh/ξc2(B/Bc2) dependence for s± symmetry behaves like that of the AGL model and shows a minimum with value much more than that obtained for s++ superconductors. With high Γπ, the ξh/ξc2(B/Bc2) dependence resides above the AGL curve for s± pairing symmetry, as observed in SANS measurements of stoichiometrical LiFeAs compound. In d-wave superconductors, ξh/ξc2 always increases with Γ similar to the s± symmetry case with Γ0 = Γπ.
