Mechanisms of normal reflection at metal interfaces studied by Andreev-reflection spectroscopy

Andreev-reflection spectroscopy of elemental superconductors in contact with nonmagnetic normal metals reveals that the strength of normal-reflection varies only slightly. This observation imposes strong constrictions on the three possible normal-reflection mechanisms: tunneling through a dielectr...
