Spontaneous superconducting diode effect in non-magnetic Nb/Ru/Sr2RuO4 topological junctions

Abstract Non-reciprocal electronic transport in a material occurs if both time reversal and inversion symmetries are broken. The superconducting diode effect (SDE) is an exotic manifestation of this type of behavior where the critical current for positive and negative currents are mismatched, as rec...
