TT 51: Focus Session: Broken Time Reversal Symmetry in Multiband Superconductors
Thursday, April 4, 2019, 09:30–13:00, H2
A broken time-reversal symmetry (BTRS) superconducting state is observed for several unconventional superconductors (SC) such as Sr2RuO4, SrPtAs, and UPt3. This state can be described as a coherent chiral state of degenerate order parameter symmetries such as px +/- i py or dx2−y2 +/- dxy which form since they avoid the formation of node lines on the Fermi surface. The main experimental evidence for BTRS SC comes from the observation of a polar Kerr effect and the appearance of small static internal magnetic fields in muon spin relaxations measurements at zero external field below Tc. However, a clear experimental proof for a specific order parameter symmetry is difficult. Recently, a new strategy has been developed to identify these states in Sr2RuO4 by applying uniaxial strain which triggered many new experimental studies in this field. For multi-band iron-based superconductors a new route to chiral sc order parameters based on the frustrated competition of different sc phases has been proposed. This state is now found in the hole-doped B1−xKxFe2As2 system.
