25. If the attached leads are made of superconductors with the transition temperature higher than that of the sample and the same pairing symmetry as that of Δs (p) and Δt (p), the Zeeman-field-induced supercurrent can flow in the system. Note that the tunneling amplitude between the leads and the noncentrosymmetric superconductor does not depend on the symmetric properties of the d vector of the gap function 12, t, p × n, as pointed out by I. A. Sergienko and S. H. Curnoe, in Ref.. The observation of the magnetoelectric effect may be possible also in this case, as discussed in Sec. 5.
