2 11 Superconductivity 11.1 Basic experimental observations Disappearance of resistance The phenomenon of superconductivity was first observed in mercury by Kammerlingh Onnes in
3 There is a characteristic sharp drop in resistivity at a critical temperature, T C. This effect has been observed in a wide range of elements and compounds. 3
4 New elements keep being added to the list in 2002 lithium was shown to superconduct under pressures of 23 to 36 GPa with critical temperatures of 9 to 15 K 1. 1 V.V. Struzhkin et al, 2002, Science
5 Element ρ(77k) mω m T C Al Tl Sn Pb Sb Bi Nb For elements in the same group, higher normal resistivity seems to go with higher transition temperature. 5
6 For some compounds, much higher transition temperatures are found: High-temperature superconductivity found in an insulator by Bednorz and Müller in Note that the transition is not very sharp. 6
7 T C (K) Nb 3 Sn 18 Nb 3 Ge 23 V 3 Si 17 La 1.8 Sr 0.2 CuO 4 35 Y 0.6 Ba 0.4 CuO 4 90 Tl 2 Ba 2 Ca 2 Cu 2 O Bi 1 x K x BiO 3 y 27 MgB
8 There is also an isotope effect: for different isotopes of the same element in many cases T C M 1/2 = constant. This is also found in some compounds: In MgB 2 only the B isotope affects T C Mg does not. 8
9 Specific Heat The specific heats of normal and superconducting phases are different: 9
10 From the specific heats, we can infer a variation of entropy with temperature 2 : This shows that the superconducting state is a more ordered state. 2 Here for Sn, after Keesom and van Laer 1938) 10
11 Effect of magnetic field An external magnetic field shifts T C to lower temperatures: 11
12 Perfect diamagnetism A superconductor expels magnetic flux (we will return to qualify this later) when it is cooled below its critical temperature. 12
13 If the flux is sero, it follows from that that is, B = µ 0 (H + M) M = H, χ = 1; we call this perfect diamagnetism. Note that there is a difference here between the behavior of a superconductor and a perfect conductor: from Maxwell s equations we know E = B t. But a perfect conductor can support no electric field (even with finite current density J, if the resistivity is zero E = ρj is zero. If E is zero, so is E in other words, for a perfect conductor the flux density B cannot change with time any flux present when the material becomes perfectly conducting will be locked in. 13
14 The magnetisation behaves in two different ways: Type I reverts suddenly to a normal material at a critical field H c : Type II begins to revert at H c1 and the change is complete by H c2. N.B think of rod, not sphere field distortion effects (demagnetisation). 14
15 11.2 Basic thermodynamics Consider the Gibbs free energy G(B, T ). As we know that dg = SdT M.dB, the perfect diamagnetism in a field B increases the free energy by B 2 2µ 0. In the normal state the magnetic field has negligible effect (because the field energy with a susceptibility χ ±10 6 is tiny compared with that of the perfect diamagnet with χ = 1: G N (B, T ) = G N (0, T ). Thus G S (B, T ) = G S (0, T ) + B2 2µ 0. 15
16 Now at the critical field, B C, the free energies of the superconducting and normal states are equal: so G S (B C, T ) = G S (0, T ) + B2 C 2µ 0 = G N (B C, T ) = G N (0, T ), G S (0, T ) = G N (0, T ) B2 C 2µ 0, so that the critical field is a measure of the stability of the superconducting state. In an applied field B < B C, G S (B, T ) = G N (0, T ) B2 C B2 2µ 0. (1) 16
17 Specific heat At constant p and B the entropy is given by S = G T, so, using equation 1, S S S N = d dt ( B 2 C B 2 ) 2µ 0 As the specific heat is = B C µ 0 db C dt. C = T ds dt, C S C N = T d B C db C dt [ µ 0 dt (dbc = T ) ] 2 d 2 B + B C µ 0 dt C dt 2. 17
18 But when T = T C, the critical field B C is zero, so C S (T C ) C N (T C ) = T ( ) 2 dbc. µ 0 dt This gives an explanation of the observed specific heat discontinuity. Note that in an order-disorder transition such as this there is no latent heat at the critical temperature. 18
19 The shielding currents The mechanism for excluding flux from the superconductor involves inducing currents in the surface. Of course, if the exclusion were perfect and occurred exactly at the surface this would imply infinite current density at the surface which is unphysical. So we need to look rather more closely at the electromagnetism. Suppose that n charge carriers per volume, each with charge q and mass m, are continuously accelerated by a field: but the current is so dv dt = qe m, J = nqv, E = m nq 2 dj dt. 19
20 Now or H = J, B = µ 0 J, so E = m nµ 0 q 2 db dt. Now take the curl of both sides, E = m nµ 0 q 2 db dt, and recall the identity the Maxwell equation and = (.) 2, E = B t,.b = 0, 20
21 so that We can write this as db dt = m nµ 0 q 2 2dB dt. db dt = λ2 2dB dt, (2) with m λ = nq 2. µ 0 As one solution of equation 2 is db dt = Ae x/λ, we can see that there is an exponential decay of the magnetic field within the surface of the perfect conductor. We call λ the penetration depth, and find that it is typically about 10 8 m. 21
