Competing Pairing Symmetries in a Generalized Two-Orbital Model for the Pnictide Superconductors

Journal Article Nicholson, Andrew D ; Ge, Weihao ; Zhang, Xiaotian ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We introduce and study an extended t-U-J two-orbital model for the pnictides that includes Heisenberg terms deduced from the strong coupling expansion. Including these J terms explicitly allows us to enhance the strength of the %;0 - 0;% spin order which favors the presence of tightly bound pairing states even in the small clusters that are here exactly diagonalized. The A1g and B2g pairing symmetries are found to compete in the realistic spin-ordered and metallic regime. The dynamical pairing susceptibility additionally unveils low-lying B1g states, suggesting that small changes in parameters may render any of the three channels stable.

Pairing symmetries of a hole-doped extended two-orbital model for the pnictides

Journal Article Nicholson, Andrew D ; Ge, Weihao ; Riera, J. A. ; ... - Physical Review B

The hole-doped ground state of a recently introduced extended t-U-J two-orbital Hubbard model for the Fe-based superconductors is studied via exact diagonalization methods on small clusters. Similarly as in the previously studied case of electron doping [A. Nicholson et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 217002 (2011)], upon hole doping it is observed that there are several competing pairing symmetries, including A1g , B1g , and B2g . However, contrary to the electron-doped case, the ground state of the hole-doped state has pseudocrystal momentum k = ( , ) in the unfolded Brillouin zone.

Pairing Strengths for a Two Orbital Model of the Fe-pnictides

Journal Article Qi, Xiao-Liang ; Raghu, S ; /Stanford U., Phys. Dept. ; ... - Submitted to Physical Review

Using an RPA approximation, we have calculated the strengths of the singlet and triplet pairing interactions which arise from the exchange of spin and orbital fluctuations for a 2-orbital model of the Fe-pnictide superconductors. When the system is doped with F, the electron pockets become dominant and we find that the strongest pairing occurs in the singlet d-wave pairing and the triplet p-wave pairing channels, which compete closely. The pairing structure in the singlet d-wave channel corresponds to a superposition of near neighbor intra-orbital singlets with a minus sign phase difference between the d{sub xz} and d{sub yz} pairs.

Properties of a two-orbital model for oxypnictide superconductors: Magnetic order, B2g spin-singlet pairing channel, and its nodal structure

Journal Article Moreo, Adriana ; Daghofer, Maria ; Riera, J. A. ; ... - Physical Review B

A recently proposed two-orbital model for the Fe-based superconductors is studied using the Lanczos method on small clusters as well as pairing mean-field approximations. Our main goals are i to provide a comprehensive analysis of this model using numerical techniques with focus on the magnetic state at halffilling and the quantum numbers of the state with two more electrons than half-filling and ii to investigate the nodal structure of the mean-field superconducting state and compare the results with angle-resolved photoemission data. In particular, we provide evidence that the dominant magnetic state at half-filling contains spin stripes, as observed experimentally usingmore »« less

The impact of Maki parameter and spin orbit scattering constant in the WHH model on upper critical magnetic fields in Ni-and co-doped pnictide bulk superconductors

Journal Article Solenov, Dmitry ; Nikolo, Martin ; Singleton, John ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

Werthamer, Helfand, and Hohenberg (WHH) model is applied to the measured upper critical magnetic fields of Ni-and Co-doped pnictide bulk superconductors. This approach incorporates both orbital and paramagnetic effects in the upper critical field’s temperature dependence. Additionally, the relative importance of both the orbital and paramagnetic effects in the suppression of the superconductivity is described by the Maki parameter. In most superconductors, the Maki parameter is usually much less than unity suggesting that the influence of the paramagnetic effect is small. However, in materials with heavy electron effective mass, in which the Fermi energy is small, or in layered materialsmore »« less
