Abstract
New 0π and ππ Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Fulde-Ferrell (LOFF) states with antiferromagnetic orientation of magnetizations in the neighboring layers of a ferromagnetic metal (FM) are predicted for FM/superconductor (FM/S) superlattices. Under certain conditions, the critical temperature T c of these states is higher than for the known 00 and π0 LOFF states with ferromagnetic ordering of the FM layers. It is shown that the nonmonotonic behavior of T c in the FM/S superlattices with S-layer thickness d s less than the threshold value d s π is due to the phase transition cascade 0π-ππ-0π At d s >d s π , the T c oscillations are caused by the 00-π0-00 transitions. New logic elements based on the FM/S structures and combining the advantages of the superconducting and magnetic data-record channels in a single sample are proposed.
