拓扑超导体CuxBi2Se3中自旋极化库珀对的转动各向同性破缺

Rotational Isotropy Breaking as Proof for Spin-polarized Cooper Pairs in the Topological Superconductor CuxBi2Se3

Yuki Nagai, Hiroki Nakamura, Masahiko Machida

摘要:

在一个有前途的候选拓扑超导体,CuxBi2Se3,我们提出了一种方法来专门确定配对对称性。该建议表明,只有当配对对称性是一个奇宇称自旋极化的三重态低于超导转变温度(Tc)时,在基础ab平面的热导率的角度依赖性表现出明显的强各向异性。超导体的狄拉克形式中明确地涉及到这种在Tc以下的显著的各向同性破缺,其中自旋轨道耦合是必不可少的。我们分类可能的间隙函数的基础上的狄拉克形式主义和澄清起源的各向同性破裂。

英文摘要:

In a promising candidate of topological superconductors, CuxBi2Se3, we propose a way to exclusively determine the pairing symmetry. The proposal suggests that the angle dependence of the thermal conductivity in the basal ab-plane shows a distinct strong anisotropy only when the pairing symmetry is an odd-parity spin-polarized triplet below the superconducting transition temperature (Tc). Such striking isotropy breaking below Tc is explicitly involved in Dirac formalism for superconductors, in which the spin-orbit coupling is essential. We classify possible gap functions based on the Dirac formalism and clarify an origin of the isotropy breaking.
