The supercurrent diode effect and nonreciprocal paraconductivity due to the chiral structure of nanotubes

Abstract The phenomenon that critical supercurrents along opposite directions become unequal is called the supercurrent diode effect (SDE). It has been observed in various systems and can often be understood by combining spin-orbit coupling and Zeeman field, which break the spatial-inversion and tim...
