AI 中文摘要

配对密度波(PDW)超导体允许存在能够束缚马约拉纳零模的半量子涡旋,但在微观模型中此类缺陷是否在能量上被稳定化仍不清楚。我们在一个具有PDW相的无自旋蜂窝晶格模型中探讨了这一问题。微观Hartree-Fock计算确定了超流刚度$\rho$和PDW相对相位刚度$\kappa$,并表明在连续PDW-狄拉克半金属转变附近$\kappa/\rho$趋近于1,从而极大地降低了涡旋分数化的长波成本。结合微观提取的Ginzburg-Landau耦合,我们表明涡旋核心能量学有利于分数化,产生显著增强的分裂尺度以及场驱动的全涡旋到半涡旋晶格转变。我们确定了由此产生的双味半涡旋晶格结构,并构建了相关的马约拉纳晶格。马约拉纳杂化产生依赖于几何和磁通的能带,具有狄拉克节点和零能费米线。综合这些结果,建立了从PDW超导性到场致半涡旋和马约拉纳晶格的微观途径。

英文摘要

Pair-density-wave (PDW) superconductors admit half-quantum vortices that can bind Majorana zero modes, but whether such defects are energetically stabilized in microscopic models remains unclear. We address this question in a spinless honeycomb-lattice model with a PDW phase. Microscopic Hartree-Fock calculations determine the superfluid stiffness $ρ$ and PDW relative-phase stiffness $κ$, and show that $κ/ρ$ approaches unity near the continuous PDW--Dirac-semimetal transition, strongly reducing the long-wavelength cost of vortex fractionalization. Combining this with microscopically extracted Ginzburg--Landau couplings, we show that vortex-core energetics favor fractionalization, producing a strongly enhanced splitting scale and a field-driven full-vortex--to--half-vortex lattice transition. We determine the resulting two-flavor half-vortex lattice structure and construct the associated Majorana lattice. Majorana hybridization produces geometry- and flux-dependent bands with Dirac nodes and zero-energy Fermi lines. Together, these results establish a microscopic route from PDW superconductivity to field-induced half-vortex and Majorana lattices.
