hyperfine.superconductivity.pippard.lambda_diffusive2(T: Annotated[float, slice(0, None, None)], T_c: Annotated[float, slice(0, None, None)], Delta_0: Annotated[float, slice(0, None, None)], l: Sequence[float], lambda_L: Annotated[float, slice(0, None, None)], xi_0: Annotated[float, slice(0, None, None)], alpha: Annotated[float, slice(0, None, None)] = 1.0) Sequence[float][source]

Evaluate the magnetic penetration depth within Pippard theory.

The calculation assumes diffuse scattering of electrons at the material’s surface.

Parameters:
  • T – Annotated[float, 0:None],

  • T_c – Annotated[float, 0:None],

  • Delta_0 – Annotated[float, 0:None],

  • l – electron mean-free-path (nm).

  • lambda_L – London penetration depth (nm).

  • xi_0 – Pippard coherence length at 0 K (nm).

  • alpha – numerical constant on the order of unity.

Returns:

The magnetic penetration depth (nm) at 0 K.
