摘要
The interfaces between superconductors and other materials have long been established as being an important part in the exploration of new physics to aid in our understanding of superconductivity and open us up to new technological advancements. Herein this article we analyse the recent progress made in the understanding of superconductivity at the interfaces involving a wide range of functional materials, mostly looking at two-dimensional (2D) systems. We start off in the first half of this review by focusing on magnetic and superconductive hybrid heterostructures, as well as the resulting physical phenomena from these systems. The first is a section on vortex and anti -vortex phenomena; the second key area is ferromagnet-superconductor hybrid phenomena with particular interest of magnetic skyrmions, the third is the novel frontier based on 2D magnetic and superconductive interfaces particularly examining Ising superconductivity at these interfaces; the fourth is superconductivity at anti -ferromagnetic interfaces and finally half -metals at superconducting interfaces. The second half of this review focuses on superconductivity at insulating and other functional interfaces. Examining firstly, Mott insulator interfaces with wide ranging discussions about how such interfaces can enhance our understanding in high -temperature superconductive cuprates and other unconventional superconductor systems such as the nickelates; in the second section the interface of 2D and 3D ferroelectric materials with superconductors with a key emphasis on devices that have been developed to control the superconducting phase; Topological insulators at interfaces with superconductors is the third section; and lastly 2D twisted material interfaces are explored, including the newly discovered magic angle interfaces discovered with graphene and other van Der Waals materials. It is anticipated that this review will lead to further interest in such interfaces to improve our understanding and expose the exotic science behind these interfaces. (c) 2024 The Author(s).
