摘要
We investigate the temperature dependence of the upper critical field H-c2 as a tool to probe the possible presence of multiband superconductivity at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 (LAO/STO). The behaviour of H-c2 can clearly indicate two-band superconductivity through its nontrivial temperature dependence. For the disorder scattering dominated two-dimensional LAO/STO interface, we find a characteristic non-monotonic curvature of the H-c2(T). We also analyse the H-c2 for multiband bulk STO and find similar behaviour.
