Long-range proximity effect in Nb-based heterostructures induced by a magnetically inhomogeneous permalloy layer

Odd-frequency triplet Cooper pairs are believed to be the carriers of long-range superconducting correlations in ferromagnets. Such triplet pairs are generated by an inhomogeneous magnetism at the interface between a superconductor (S) and a ferromagnet (F). So far, reproducible long-range effects w...
