Evolution of paramagnetic quasiparticle excitations emerged in the high-field superconducting phase of CeCoIn5.
We present (115)In NMR measurements in a novel thermodynamic phase of CeCoIn(5) in a high magnetic field, where exotic superconductivity exists with the incommensurate spin-density wave order. We show that the NMR spectra in this phase provide direct evidence for the emergence of the spatially distributed normal quasiparticle regions. The quantitative analysis for the field evolution of the par...
متن کاملCompeting superfluid orders in spin-orbit-coupled fermionic cold-atom optical lattices
The Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) phase, a superconducting state with nonzero total momentum Cooper pairs in a large magnetic field, was first predicted about 50 years ago and has since become an important concept in many branches of physics. Despite an intensive search in various materials, unambiguous experimental evidence for the FFLO phase is still lacking in experiments. In this ...
متن کاملMulti- Q hexagonal spin density waves and dynamically generated spin-orbit coupling: Time-reversal invariant analog of the chiral spin density wave
We study hexagonal spin-channel (“triplet”) density waves with commensurate M-point propagation vectors. We first show that the three Q = M components of the singlet charge density and charge-current density waves can be mapped to multicomponent Q = 0 nonzero angular momentum order in three dimensions (3D) with cubic crystal symmetry. This one-to-one correspondence is exploited to define a symm...
متن کاملDisordered Fulde-Ferrel-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in d-wave superconductors
We study the Fulde-Ferrel-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) superconducting state in the disordered systems. We analyze the microscopic model, in which the dwave superconductivity is stabilized near the antiferromagnetic quantum critical point, and investigate two kinds of disorder, namely, box disorder and point disorder, on the basis of the Bogoliubov-deGennes (BdG) equation. The spatial structure of...
متن کاملFulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in d-wave superconductors
The Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state can be found in layered dwave superconductors such as high Tc cuprates and κ-(ET)2 salts in a planar magnetic field. We show the superconducting order parameter forms two dimensional crystalline lattice in the FFLO state for d-wave superconductors. Also the quasiparticle density of states and the thermodynamics of FFLO state are constructed. The...
