Josephson effect for superconductors lacking time-reversal and inversion symmetries.
Because of the absence of a center of inversion in some superconducting compounds, a p-wave admixture to the dominant d-wave (or s) order parameter must exist. If time reversal is also violated, an allowed invariant is the product of the d wave (or s wave), p wave, and an appropriately directed current. We show that this leads to a new and remarkable property of the Josephson current for tunnel...
متن کاملSuperconductivity in ferromagnetic metals and in compounds without inversion centre
The symmetry properties and the general overview of the superconductivity theory in the itinerant ferromagnets and in materials without space parity are presented. The basic notions of unconventional superconductivity are introduced in broad context of multiband superconductivity which is inherent property of ferromanetic metals or metals without centre of inversion.
متن کاملParamagnetic limit of superconductivity in a crystal without inversion center
The theory of paramagnetic limit of superconductivity in metals without inversion center is developed. There is in general the paramagnetic suppression of superconducting state. The effect is strongly dependent on field orientation in respect to crystal axes. The reason for this is that the degeneracy of electronic states with opposite momenta k and −k forming of Cooper pairs is lifted by magne...
متن کاملTime-reversal symmetry-breaking superconductivity in epitaxial bismuth/nickel bilayers
Superconductivity that spontaneously breaks time-reversal symmetry (TRS) has been found, so far, only in a handful of three-dimensional (3D) crystals with bulk inversion symmetry. We report an observation of spontaneous TRS breaking in a 2D superconducting system without inversion symmetry: the epitaxial bilayer films of bismuth and nickel. The evidence comes from the onset of the polar Kerr ef...
متن کاملColor Superconductivity: Symmetries and Effective Lagrangians
I briefly review the symmetries and the associated low energy effective Lagrangian for two light flavor Color Superconductivity (2SC). 2SC SYMMETRIES AND EFFECTIVE LAGRANGIAN Quark matter at very high density is expected to behave as a color superconductor [1]. Possible phenomenological applications include the description of quark stars, neutron star interiors, the physics near the core of col...
