Superconducting Instabilities in Electronic Liquid Crystal Phases

ORAL

Abstract

We discuss the superconducting instabilities in a two dimensional fermionic system in uniform electronic liquid crystal phases which cause the Fermi surfaces (FS) to become distorted. We study the case of fermions in a time-reversal broken nematic-like state with $l=3$ in the charge channel, and the $l=2$ state in the spin channel. We discuss the competition between singlet and triplet superconducting states with pair density wave states.
