Novel Superconducting States in Hybrid Devices

We discuss different scenarios which allow for inducing unconventional superconducting pairing correlations in heterostructures. Specifically, we investigate superconductor-ferromagnet hybrids using a recent extension of the Quasiclassical Theory of Superconductivity and discuss both the long range triplet Josephson effect and point contact spectra. In the second part, we investigate a microscopic model of the superconducting proximity effect in topological insulators.
