Title: Observation of half-quantum flux in the unconventional superconductor β-Bi ₂ Pd

Abstract

Magnetic flux quantization is one of the defining properties of a superconductor. We report the observation of half-integer magnetic flux quantization in mesoscopic rings of superconducting β-Bi ₂ Pd thin films. The half-quantum fluxoid manifests itself as a π phase shift in the quantum oscillation of the superconducting critical temperature. This result verifies unconventional superconductivity of β-Bi ₂ Pd and is consistent with a spin-triplet pairing symmetry. Our findings may have implications for flux quantum bits in the context of quantum computing.

Observation of half-height magnetization steps in Sr{sub 2}RuO{sub 4 }.

Journal Article Jang, J. ; Ferguson, D. G. ; Vakaryuk, V. ; ... - Science

Spin-triplet superfluids can support exotic objects, such as half-quantum vortices characterized by the nontrivial winding of the spin structure. We present cantilever magnetometry measurements performed on mesoscopic samples of Sr{sub 2}RuO{sub 4}, a spin-triplet superconductor. With micrometer-sized annular-shaped samples, we observed transitions between integer fluxoid states as well as a regime characterized by 'half-integer transitions' - steps in the magnetization with half the height of the ones we observed between integer fluxoid states. These half-height steps are consistent with the existence of half-quantum vortices in superconducting Sr{sub 2}RuO{sub 4}.

Determination of pairing symmetry using phase-sensitive tunneling in tricrystal cuprates

Journal Article Tsuei, C.C. ; Kirtley, J.R. - Journal of Low Temperature Physics

An unambiguous determination of the pairing symmetry in cuprate superconductors is important in order to understand the origin of high-temperature superconductivity. By making use of the effects of pair tunneling and flux quantization, the authors have designed and implemented several tricrystal experiments for phase-sensitive determination of the order parameter symmetry in high-Tc superconductors such as YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7}, Tl{sub 2}Ba{sub 2}CuO{sub 6}, GdBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7}, and Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 7}. By using a high-resolution scanning SQUID microscope, they have made the first direct observation of spontaneously generated half-flux quanta at the tricrystal point.

Engineering of mixed pairing and non-Abelian Majorana states in chiral p-wave superconductor Sr ₂RuO ₄ and other materials

Technical Report Liu, Ying

This project deals with odd-parity superconductor Sr ₂RuO ₄ and related material systems, aiming at understanding the unconventional nature of superconductivity in this material. An odd-parity superconductor is expected to feature a novel topological object, the half-flux-quantum vortex that hosts a Majorana anyons. Majorana anyons carry non-Abelian statistics that can be used as the building block for constructing a fault-tolerated topological quantum computer. Half-flux-quantum vortices form in an odd-parity superconductor because of the availability of charge neutral spin supercurrent in addition to the normal supercurrent. Half-height magnetization steps were found in a cantilever magnetometry measurement of doubly connected mesoscopic samplesmore »« less

Nearly ferromagnetic spin-triplet superconductivity

Journal Article Ran, Sheng ; Eckberg, Chris ; Ding, Qing-Ping ; ... - Science

Spin-triplet superconductors potentially host topological excitations that are of interest for quantum information processing. We report the discovery of spin-triplet superconductivity in UTe ₂, featuring a transition temperature of 1.6 kelvin and a very large and anisotropic upper critical field exceeding 40 teslas. This superconducting phase stability suggests that UTe ₂is related to ferromagnetic superconductors such as UGe ₂, URhGe, and UCoGe. However, the lack of magnetic order and the observation of quantum critical scaling place UTe ₂at the paramagnetic end of this ferromagnetic superconductor series. A large intrinsic zero-temperature reservoir of ungapped fermions indicates a highly unconventional type ofmore » superconducting pairing.« less

Beyond triplet: Unconventional superconductivity in a spin-3/2 topological semimetal

Journal Article Kim, Hyunsoo ; Wang, Kefeng ; Nakajima, Yasuyuki ; ... - Science Advances

In all known fermionic super fluids, Cooper pairs are composed of spin-1/2 quasi-particles that pair to form either spin-singlet or spin-triplet bound states. The "spin" of a Bloch electron, however, is xed by the symmetries of the crystal and the atomic orbitals from which it is derived, and in some cases can behave as if it were a spin-3/2 particle. The superconducting state of such a system allows pairing beyond spin-triplet, with higher spin quasi-particles combining to form quintet or even septet pairs. Here, we report evidence of unconventional superconductivity emerging from a spin-3/2 quasiparticle electronic structure in the half-Heuslermore »« less
