Superconducting type transition by proximity effect between a frustrated antiferromagnetic insulator and a normal metal

Abstract

Abstract A superconductor-like transition in a copper channel is observed when an antiferromagnetic layer is in contact with this channel. This reminds the superconducting cuprates that from the phase diagram one observes an antiferromagnetic phase close to the superconducting phase. In my proposal, there is a subtle difference, the magnetic phase is not killed as in cuprates. [Cu2(OH)3Cl] was used as the antiferromagnetic insulator and Copper (Cu) as the normal metal. The copper conductive channel is formed by applying a voltage of 70 V.
