Exotic magnetic states in Pauli-limited superconductors.
Magnetism and superconductivity compete or interact in complex and intricate ways. Here we review the special case where novel magnetic phenomena appear due to superconductivity, but do not exist without it. Such states have recently been identified in unconventional superconductors. They are different from the mere coexistence of magnetic order and superconductivity in conventional superconduc...
متن کاملMagnetic Properties of Unconventional Superconductors
The article reviews recent developments on magnetic properties of superconductors with anisotropic Cooper pairing. In particular, we show how the concept of broken symmetries is applied to the investigation of the mixed state in superconductors with a multicomponent order parameter. Starting from the phenomenological description in the framework of the generalized Ginzburg-Landau theory, we dis...
متن کاملFractional quantization of the magnetic flux in cylindrical unconventional superconductors.
The magnetic flux threading a conventional superconducting ring is typically quantized in units of Φ0=hc/2e. The factor of 2 in the denominator of Φ0 originates from the existence of two different types of pairing states with minima of the free energy at even and odd multiples of Φ0. Here we show that spatially modulated pairing states exist with energy minima at fractional flux values, in part...
متن کاملElementary vortex pinning potential in superconductors with unconventional order parameter
The elementary vortex pinning potential is studied in unconventional superconductors within the framework of the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. Numerical results are presented for d-, anisotropic s-, and isotropic s-wave superconductors to show explicitly that in unconventional superconductors the vortex pinning potential is determined mainly by the loss of the condensation energy ...
متن کاملBogomolnyi-type bounds in unconventional superconductors without external magnetic fields
Following Bogomolnyi’s classical treatment of vortices, we develop a method for finding rigorous lower bounds to the Landau-Ginzburg free energy describing unconventional superconductors in the absence of external magnetic fields. This allows a more precise description of the magnetic instabilities previously considered in these systems. In particular, we derive new sufficient conditions for th...
