零能Andreev束缚态产生自发自旋电流的奇频表面超导

Generation of odd-frequency surface superconductivity with spontaneous spin current due to the zero-energy Andreev bound state

Shun Matsubara, Yukio Tanaka, Hiroshi Kontani

摘要:

我们提出,通常在体中不稳定的奇频$s$波($s^{\rm{odd}}$波)超导能隙函数自然地出现在$d$波超导体的边缘。这一预测是基于表面自旋涨落配对机制,由于零能量表面Andreev束缚态。体隙函数和边缘隙函数之间的干扰触发了$d+s^{\rm{odd}}$状态,并且所产生的自旋电流是揭示“隐藏的”奇频隙的有用信号。此外,边缘$s^{\rm{odd}}$间隙可以通过扩散正常金属上的邻近效应来确定。此外,这项研究提供了一个决定性的验证“厄米奇频间隙函数”,这一直是一个开放的基本挑战,这一领域。

英文摘要:

We propose that the odd-frequency $s$ wave ($s^{\rm{odd}}$ wave) superconducting gap function, which is usually unstable in the bulk, naturally emerges at the edge of $d$ wave superconductors. This prediction is based on the surface spin fluctuation pairing mechanism owing to the zero-energy surface Andreev bound state. The interference between bulk and edge gap functions triggers the $d+s^{\rm{odd}}$ state, and the generated spin current is a useful signal uncovering the ``hidden'' odd-frequency gap. In addition, the edge $s^{\rm{odd}}$ gap can be determined via the proximity effect on the diffusive normal metal. Furthermore, this study provides a decisive validation of the ``Hermite odd-frequency gap function,'' which has been an open fundamental challenge to this field.
