Tunnelling and switching phenomena in superconducting quantum dots and Josephson junctions
This work is devoted to investigation of tunnelling and switching phenomena arising in Condensed Matter Physics. In the first part I investigate quantum tunnelling of a single Abrikosov vortex in a superconducting quantum dot. The escape of a vortex carrying magnetic flux leads to a switching of a q...
