Anisotropic superconductivity in borocarbide superconductors and spin disorder

We present microscopic measurements indicating that the superconducting gap of borocarbide superconductors is strongly anisotropic. They are compared to macroscopic B c2 measurements on TmNi 2B 2C, which allow a direct estimation of spin disorder and of coupling strength anisotropy (strong coupling...

Zusammenfassung:We present microscopic measurements indicating that the superconducting gap of borocarbide superconductors is strongly anisotropic. They are compared to macroscopic B c2 measurements on TmNi 2B 2C, which allow a direct estimation of spin disorder and of coupling strength anisotropy (strong coupling two-band model).
