On Distinguishing d-wave from Highly Anisotropic s-wave Superconductors
Systematic impurity doping in the Cu-O plane of the hole-doped cuprate superconductors may allow one to decide between unconventional (”d-wave”) and anisotropic conventional (”s-wave”) states as possible candidates for the order parameter in these materials. We show that potential scattering of any strength always increases the gap minima of such s-wave states, leading to activated behavior in ...
متن کاملKondo effect in d-wave superconductors
We present theoretical investigation of a single magnetic impurity in a d-wave superconductor using the large N limit. It is shown that the Kondo screening occurs only in the presence of the particle-hole asymmetry. We find analytical expressions for the Kondo temperature, magnetic susceptibility and scattering matrix near the phase transition. The results are generalized for the density of sta...
متن کاملMajorana modes in time-reversal invariant s-wave topological superconductors.
We present a time-reversal invariant s-wave superconductor supporting Majorana edge modes. The multiband character of the model together with spin-orbit coupling are key to realizing such a topological superconductor. We characterize the topological phase diagram by using a partial Chern number sum, and show that the latter is physically related to the parity of the fermion number of the time-r...
متن کاملTopological Insulators and Superconductors
We study theoretical properties of robust low energy electronic excitations associated with topological insulators and superconductors. The bulk materials are described by non-interacting single particle band Hamiltonians with a finite excitation gap. Their topological phases are classifed according to symmetries and dimensions, characterized by discrete bulk invariants, and correspond to topol...
متن کاملS- and D-wave Pairing in Short Coherence Length Superconductors
Over the past three years or so the evidence has become overwhelming that the cuprate high Tc superconductors have a d-wave pairing state[1]. The measurements of Wollman et al.[2] and of Tsuei et al.[3] are especially convincing since they do not depend on the microscopic physics of the energy gap, but instead depend only on the order parameter phase. Other experiments, such as photoemission[4,...
