TopologicalD+p-wave superconductivity in Rashba systems

The p-wave superconductivity in the presence of Rashba interaction in 2DEG

We investigate the effect of the Rashba interaction on two dimensional superconductivity. The presence of the Rashba interaction lifts the spin degeneracy and gives rise to the spectrum of two bands. There are intraband and interband pairs scattering which result in the coupled gap equations. We find that there are isotropic and anisotropic components in the gap function. The latter has the for...

Superconductivity Bordering Rashba Type Topological Transition

Strong spin orbital interaction (SOI) can induce unique quantum phenomena such as topological insulators, the Rashba effect, or p-wave superconductivity. Combining these three quantum phenomena into a single compound has important scientific implications. Here we report experimental observations of consecutive quantum phase transitions from a Rashba type topological trivial phase to topological...

d - wave nonadiabatic superconductivity

The inclusion of nonadiabatic corrections to the electron-phonon interaction leads to a strong momentum dependence in the generalized Eliashberg equations beyond Migdal's limit. For a s-wave symmetry of the order parameter, this induced momentum dependence leads to an enhancement of Tc when small momentum transfer is dominant. Here we study how the d-wave symmetry affects the above behavior. We...

d-wave superconductivity in the hubbard model

The superconducting instabilities of the doped repulsive 2D Hubbard model are studied in the intermediate to strong coupling regime with the help of the dynamical cluster approximation. To solve the effective cluster problem we employ an extended noncrossing approximation, which allows for a transition to the broken symmetry state. At sufficiently low temperatures we find stable d-wave solution...
