Microscopic evidence for anisotropic multigap superconductivity in the CsV3Sb5 kagome superconductor

نویسندگان

چکیده

The recently discovered kagome superconductor CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ ($T_c \simeq 2.5$ K) has been found to host charge order as well a non-trivial band topology, encompassing multiple Dirac points and probable surface states. Such complex phenomenologically rich system is, therefore, an ideal playground for observing unusual electronic phases. Here, we report on microscopic studies of its anisotropic superconducting properties by means transverse-field muon spin rotation ($\mu$SR) experiments. temperature dependences the in-plane out-of-plane components magnetic penetration depth $\lambda_{ab}^{-2}(T)$ $\lambda_{c}^{-2}(T)$ indicate that parameter exhibits two-gap ($s+s$)-wave symmetry, reflecting Fermi surfaces CsV3Sb5. multiband nature superconductivity is further validated different $\gamma_\lambda(T)$ upper critical field $\gamma_{\rm B_{c2}}(T)$, both in close analogy with known MgB$_2$. Remarkably, high value $T_c/\lambda^{-2}(0)$ ratio orientations strongly suggests unconventional superconductivity. relaxation rates obtained from zero $\mu$SR experiments do not show noticeable change across transition, indicating does break time reversal symmetry.

Doped kagome system as exotic superconductor

A Chern-Simons theory for the doped spin-1/2 kagome system is constructed, from which it is shown that the system is an exotic superconductor that breaks time-reversal symmetry. It is also shown that the system carries minimal vortices of flux hc /4e as opposed to the usual hc /2e in conventional superconductors and contains fractional quasiparticles including fermionic quasiparticles with semi...

Anisotropic superconductivity in PrOs4Sb12

Recently two anisotropic superconducting gap functions have been observed in the skutterudite PrOs4Sb12. These order parameters are spin-triplet. There are at least 2 distinct phases in a magnetic field, bearing some resemblance to superfluid He. Here we present an analysis of the thermodynamic properties in these two superconducting states within the weak-coupling BCS theory. PACS. 74.20.Fg BC...

Towards a Microscopic Theory of the Knight Shift in an Anisotropic, Multiband Type-II Superconductor

A method is proposed to extend the zero-temperature Hall-Klemm microscopic theory of the Knight shift K in an anisotropic and correlated, multi-band metal to calculate K(T) at finite temperatures T both above and into its superconducting state. The transverse part of the magnetic induction B(t) = B0 +B1(t) causes adiabatic changes suitable for treatment with the Keldysh contour formalism and an...

Experimental aspects of Alpha, Beta angles distortion on superconductivity in 1111-type Iron-based superconductor

In this research, we aim to clarify the relationship between the structural distortion due to doping and the superconductivity existence in the FeAs4 structure. For this, we have prepared polycrystalline of NdFeAsO0.8F0.2, NdFeAs0.95Sb0.05O0.8F0.2 and Nd0.99Ca0.01FeAsO0.8F0.2 samples by one-step solid state reaction method. The structural and electrical properties of the samples were characteri...
