EPJ B Topical Issue: Superconducting Graphene

Guest Editors: Ivan V. Borzenets, Chung-Ting Ke, Ethan Arnault, Tobias Stauber

Submissions are invited for a Topical Issue of EPJ B on Superconducting Graphene.

The goal of this topical issue is to focus on all aspects of research related to superconductivity in graphene. We aim to have an even spread of papers discussing proximity induced graphene as well as "magic angle" and strain/gate induced superconductivity in graphene. At the same time, we hope to cover both intrinsic physical properties, as well as device applications (mainly quantum information quantum sensing).

Topics to be covered include but are not limited to:

  • Proximity induced graphene
  • ‘Magic angle’ and strain/gate induced superconductivity
  • Device Applications
  • Quantum information/quantum sensing

Original research papers, Mini-reviews, and Colloquium-type focusing on the latest experimental, theoretical or computational advancements related are welcome. We invite contributors to communicate their intention to submit manuscripts for this Topical Issue to the Guest Editors as soon as possible. Please provide the tentative title of the paper and a short abstract. The full manuscripts should be submitted before the deadline directly to the EPJ B Editorial Office at https://www.editorialmanager.com/epjb/.

Deadline for submission: December 31, 2023

Submissions should be clearly identified as intended for the Topical Issue on ‘Superconducting Graphene’. Papers will be published continuously and will appear as soon as accepted on the journal website. The electronic version of the Topical Issue will contain all accepted papers in the order of publication. All submitted papers will be refereed according to the usual high standards of the journal. More information about EPJ B, including instructions for authors is available here.
