Our calculation is based on a scattering-matrix approach, which concerns for wave-function localisation in the normal metal, and extends beyond the conventional semiclassical theory based on Usadel and Eilenberger equations. We also analyse how a finite transparency of the NS interface modifies the spectral proximity effect and demonstrate that our results agree in the dirty diffusive limit with those obtained from the Usadel equation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-10-22T13:05:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "random matrix theory", "disordered wires", "spectral proximity effect", "ns interface modifies", "results agree" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
