Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have investigated the superconducting proximity effect on Dirac electrons which appear in graphene sheets and topological insulators. We have developed a general quasi-classical theory of the Josephson effect in graphene, and have derived a general effective model for Dirac electrons under the superconducting proximity effect. These theoretical frameworks enable us to accurately describe the proximity effect in Dirac electron systems beyond ordinary phenomenological models. As the subject related to those mentioned above, we have also developed the theoretical framework to describe Dirac electrons on a surface of topological insulators.
