Flux–charge duality and topological quantum phase fluctuations in quasi-one-dimensional superconductors
It has long been thought that macroscopic phase coherence breaks down in effectively lower-dimensional superconducting systems even at zero temperature due to enhanced topological quantum phase fluctuations. In quasi-one-dimensional wires, these fluctuations are described in terms of 'quantum p...
