Condensed matter physics

the process at a metal-superconductor interface in which an incoming electron is reflected as a hole while a Cooper pair enters the superconductor.

In condensed matter physics, Andreev reflection refers to the process at a metal-superconductor interface in which an incoming electron is reflected as a hole while a Cooper pair enters the superconductor. This meaning comes from Blonder (1982) in Physical Review B.[1]
