Proximity Effect in Presence of Quantum Fluctuations

preprint1999arXivOpen access

Abstract

The effect of Coulomb interaction upon superconductive proximity effect in disordered metals is studied, employing newly developed Keldysh functional approach (cond-mat/9907358). We have calculated subgap Andreev conductance between superconductor and 2D dirty film, as well as Josephson coupling via such a film. Both two qualitatively different Coulomb effects - suppression of the tunneling density of states and disorder-enchanced repulsion in the Cooper channel - are shown to be important at sufficiently low temperatures.
