  We consider the holographic abelian Higgs model and show that, in the absence
of the scale symmetry breaking effect, chiral symmetry breaking gives linear
confinement where the slope is given by the value of the chiral condensation.
The model can be considered either as the theory of superconductivity or as the
axial sector of QCD depending on the interpretation of the charge. We also
provided a few models with linear confinement.
