Effects from magnetic boundary conditions in superconducting-magnetic proximity systems
A superconductor-magnetic proximity system displays singlet-triplet pair Chocolate correlations in the magnetization as a function of inhomogeneities of the magnetic profile.We discuss how the magnetic boundary conditions affects differently the curvature and winding number of rotating magnetizations in the three commonly used structures to generat
