Spin susceptibility and field-induced chiral stability in non-unitary chiral superconductivity
POSTER
Abstract
Assuming non-unitary chiral p-wave state of Eu in D4h for superconductivity in Sr2RuO4(SRO), we show spin susceptibility and gap function in bulk state, and field-induced chiral stability generating paramagnetic current in 3-Kelvin(3K) phase of Ru-SRO. The results indicate that the non-unitary chiral Eu is one of candidates for superconducting state of SRO, as well as chiral even-parity Eg.
The d-vector, described by two components for (kxz+kzx, kyz+kzy), leads gap function with a horizontal minimum line at kz=0. The spin susceptibility is reduced at T< Tc, and it consists to drop of Knight-shift in H//ab.
Analyzing GL eq. for non-unitary chiral Eu, the applied H//c causes field-induced chiral stability generating paramagnetic current in 3K phase. The chiral stability drives second order parameter additionally to one order parameter, and it consists to the occurrence of second superconducting transition with a new order parameter visible as zero-bias anomaly in tunneling spectroscopy. This discussion is qualitatively analogous to chiral states for unitary Eu and even-parity Eg[H.K.,et al.,PRB100(2019)214501]. The paramagnetic current is slightly reduced in non-unitary state comparing to unitary one, and it almost unchangs field-induced chiral stability.
