Outline of Final Research Achievements

When a normal metal is made contact with a superconductor, superconducting properties penetrate into the normal metal from the interface. Utilizing a function of local tunneling spectroscopy, we investigated the induced superconductivity by scanning tunneling microscopy, and revealed that local defective structures and electronic states affect the propagation of the proximate effect.
In studies of the proximity effect into two-dimensional normal metal layers, we found that the monoatomic steps in metal layers exhibit significant effects on the propagation of superconductivity. We revealed that the steps disrupt the propagation beyond them and enhance the superconductivity between the steps and the super/normal interface.
At an interface between a ferromagnetic metal and a superconductor, we observed breaking of superconductivity near the interface in the superconducting material, and found that the breaking is anisotropic reflecting the shape of the Fermi surface.
