摘要:

单层结构的钛酸盐Sr $_2$ RuO $_4$是最神秘的非常规超导体之一。虽然多年来它被认为是手征$p$波超导基态的最佳候选者,但最近的实验表明它是单重态,排除了最初的$p$波方案。超导电性以及多层化合物的性质的钙钛矿是强烈的影响由范霍夫奇点附近的费米能量。微小的结构扭曲使范霍夫奇点穿过费米能,对物理性质产生了戏剧性的影响。本文利用准粒子干涉成像技术研究了Sr $_2$ RuO $_4$表面层中范霍夫奇点的电子结构。我们跟踪它的分散和证明从模型计算占全真空重叠的波函数,它的检测是通过在表面层的八面体旋转促进。

英文摘要:

The single-layered ruthenate Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is one of the most enigmatic unconventional superconductors. While for many years it was thought to be the best candidate for a chiral $p$-wave superconducting ground state, desirable for topological quantum computations, recent experiments suggest a singlet state, ruling out the original $p$-wave scenario. The superconductivity as well as the properties of the multi-layered compounds of the ruthenate perovskites are strongly influenced by a van Hove singularity in proximity of the Fermi energy. Tiny structural distortions move the van Hove singularity across the Fermi energy with dramatic consequences for the physical properties. Here, we determine the electronic structure of the van Hove singularity in the surface layer of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ by quasiparticle interference imaging. We trace its dispersion and demonstrate from a model calculation accounting for the full vacuum overlap of the wave functions that its detection is facilitated through the octahedral rotations in the surface layer.
