Abstract

Recent researches on tilted Dirac cone materials have unveiled an astonishing property, the metric of the spacetime can be altered in these materials by applying a perpendicular electric field. This phenomenon is observed near the Fermi velocity, which is significantly lower than the speed of light. According to this property, we derive the Ginzburg-Landau action from the microscopic Hamiltonian of the BCS theory for the tilted Dirac cone materials. This derivation is performed near the critical point within the framework of curved spacetime. The novelty of the present work lies in deriving a general Ginzburg-Landau action that depends on spacetime curvature, where the curvature is tuned by an external electric field. Furthermore, this finding enables us to apply the Ginzburg-Landau theory at high temperatures by changing the spacetime metric, potentially offering insights into achieving high-temperature superconductivity in these materials.

Anisotropic upper critical field in the van der Waals superconducting quasicrystal (Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$)$_{1.6}$Te

We investigated the upper critical field of a large single grain of the Nb-substituted van der Waals layered quasicrystal (Ta$_{0.7}$Nb$_{0.3}$)$_{1.6}$Te. The sample exhibits a sharp superconducting transition at $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ = 1.35 K, the highest value reported to date among quasicrystal superconductors. The angular dependence of the critical field exhibits a pronounced criterion dependence: the field determined using the 10% $R_{\mathrm{N}}$ ($R_{\mathrm{N}}$: normal-state resistance) criterion is well described by the anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau model, whereas those determined using the 65% and 90% $R_{\mathrm{N}}$ criteria exhibit Tinkham-like angular dependence characteristic of two-dimensional superconductivity. The high-field part of the resistive transition is well described by a surface-superconductivity model and exhibits a pronounced excitation-current dependence for magnetic fields close to the $ab$ plane, supporting the presence of surface superconductivity on the quasiperiodic $ab$-plane surfaces. The bulk $H_{\mathrm{c2}}$ is strongly anisotropic, with the in-plane $H_{\mathrm{c2}}$ exceeding the weak-coupling Pauli limit by a factor of approximately 2.5. For both field orientations, $H_{\mathrm{c2}}(T)$ deviates upward from the conventional dirty-limit Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg prediction at low temperatures. A phenomenologically modified Ginzburg-Landau-Abrikosov-Gorkov model incorporating a spatial distribution of the electronic diffusivity substantially improves the description of $H_{\mathrm{c2}}(T)$, suggesting that spatial variations in electronic transport properties may contribute to its anomalous temperature dependence.

Field-induced incipient spin-density phase stabilized inside the nematic phase of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$

Spin-density wave (SDW) order and superconductivity frequently compete and coexist in unconventional superconductors, where spin fluctuations often mediate superconducting pairing. In iron-chalcogenide superconductors, FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$, SDW order has only been detected under applied pressure, while both spin and nematic fluctuations are involved in determining their rich superconducting phase diagrams. Here, we report evidence for an incipient SDW phase, within the nematic state of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$, revealed in magnetic fields up to 68~T. Once superconductivity is quenched, we observe sharp upturns in longitudinal resistivity accompanied by anomalies in tunnel diode oscillator frequency response and torque anisotropy, consistent with a field-induced electronic order. Dominant low-frequency quantum oscillations reveal a small reconstructed Fermi surface, consistent with a field-induced SDW order. Direct experimental comparisons with a pressure-tuned nematic, analogue, FeSe$_{0.96}$S$_{0.04}$, demonstrate that SDW phases are stabilized within the nematic phase of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ via both chemical substitution and applied pressure. These findings reveal that by weakening nematicity, the SDW orders are stabilised, which promotes the dominant superconducting pairing mechanism in iron chalcogenides.

Q-ball mechanism of electron transport and spin/phonon excitations properties of high-Tc superconductors

The Q-ball mechanism of high Tc superconductivity in cuprates, recently proposed by the author, is farther explored. Scattering on the Q-balls above Tc causes linear with temperature growth of electrical resistivity, splitting of the inplane phonon brunches into softened and hardened ones and hourglass dispersion of spin-wave excitations close to CDW and SDW wave vectors respectively. The diamagnetic response of Q-balls gas above Tc is in qualitative accord with experimental data in high Tc cuprates.
