Nonequilibrium Transport in Superconductor/Ferromagnet/Superconductor Diffusive Junctions: Interplay between Proximity Effect and Ferromagnetism

Abstract

The theory of the I-V characteristics in diffusive superconductor/weak ferromagnet/superconductor (SFS) junction is developed. We show that the exchange field h of the ferromagnet manifests itself as an additional conductance peak at eV +h in the phase-coherent regime, when the Thouless energy is of the order of superconducting order parameter. The excess current exhibits non-monotonous dependence on the exchange field and non-trivial temperature behavior, which is strongly influenced by the temperature dependence of the exchange field.
