TheoryTheoryUsually electron-lattice collisions resistivity

Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer:Electron pairs can be coupled by phonons(lattice vibrations) Interact only with each other,

not with lattice no resistivity.

In Cu e-phonon-e interaction is weak, no coupling.

Dolan SWIP 2009 8

At T=0, all electrons are pairedBond energy 2 = 3.5 kTc Tc = “critical temperature”

Dolan SWIP 2009 9

At T>0, some pair bonds are brokenMore unbound electrons Fewer scattering states available

(Pauli Exclusion Principle) weaker electron-phonon interactions weaker electron pair binding weaker electron pair binding

Dolan SWIP 2009 10

At T=Tc , all pair bonds are brokenc p superconductivity lost

Dolan SWIP 2009 11

Energy Gapgy pAt T=0 all electrons are paired

energy gap 2(0) = 3.5 kTc “critical temperature”

Raising T, J, or B heating some pairs split

Each pair split more free electrons fewer possible scattering states for paired e

(Pauli exclusion principle)(Pauli exclusion principle). weaker e-phonon-e coupling, reduced energy gap .

As T increases 0.

Meissner Effect -- Diamagnetism

If ns = 1028 m-3, then L = 5x10-8 m

flIf J is high, fluxons canmove from one site to another(“flux creep”) which generates heat

fluxons

( flux creep ), which generates heat.

If many fluxons move, “flux jump” loss of superconductivity

Many lattice defects needed to prevent flux jump.

Need for Coil StabilizationFlux jumps local “normal” region J2 heat generation

Inductance prevents current decay (L d/dt voltage)

Heat nearby region normal more heat spreadHeat nearby region normal more heat spread

Need to prevent “quench” (spread of normal region).

Large stored energy could melt coil or rupture cryostat.
