Multicomponent superconductivity based on multiband superconductors

Y Tanaka - Superconductor Science and Technology, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
Multicomponent superconductivity is realized in multiband superconductors when an
interband pairing interaction is considerably weaker than the intraband interactions. There is …

state with broken time-reversal symmetry in Fe-based superconductors

S Maiti, AV Chubukov - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2013 - APS
We analyze the evolution of the superconducting gap structure in strongly hole-doped Ba 1−
x K x Fe 2 As 2 between x= 1 and x∼ 0.4 (optimal doping). In the latter case, the pairing …

Length scales, collective modes, and type-1.5 regimes in three-band superconductors

J Carlström, J Garaud, E Babaev - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2011 - APS
The recent discovery of iron pnictide superconductors has resulted in a rapidly growing
interest in multiband models with more than two bands. In this work we specifically focus on …

Constrained weak-coupling superconductivity in multiband superconductors

NH Aase, CS Johnsen, A Sudbø - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
We consider superconductivity in a system with N Fermi surfaces, including intraband and
interband effective electron-electron interactions. The effective interaction is described by an …

Multiband strong-coupling superconductors with spontaneously broken time-reversal symmetry

NH Aase, K Mæland, A Sudbø - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
We study superconducting three-band systems within strong-coupling Eliashberg theory. In
particular, we search for phase-frustrated superconducting systems with spontaneous time …

Vortices and chirality in multi-band superconductors

T Yanagisawa, Y Tanaka, I Hase… - Journal of the Physical …, 2012 - journals.jps.jp
We investigate some significant properties of multi-band superconductors. They are time-
reversal symmetry breaking, chirality and fractional quantum flux vortices in three-band …

Time-reversal symmetry breaking in frustrated superconductor

M Mandal, A Kataria, C Patra, D Singh, PK Biswas… - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
Geometrical frustration leads to novel quantum phenomena such as the spin-liquid phase in
triangular and kagome lattices. Intraband and interband Fermi surface (FS) nesting can drive …

Frustrated multiband superconductivity

RG Dias, AM Marques - Superconductor Science and Technology, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
We show that a clean multiband superconductor may display one or several phase
transitions with increasing temperature from or to chiral superconducting states with broken …
