Temperature dependence of charge-to-spin conversion in rhombohedral (110) bismuth thin film

The amplitude of charge-to-spin conversion, namely the spin Hall effect (SHE), in bismuth (Bi) strongly depends on its crystal orientation. The conversion efficiency at room temperature in rhombohedral (110) bismuth is notably large as expected from its large spin-orbit interaction, and such a large SHE is ascribed to the large effective g-factor in bismuth [N. Fukumoto et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 120, e2215030120 (2023)]. Despite the successful observation of the large conversion efficiency, a more detailed physical mechanism of the SHE in (110) bismuth is still elusive and under debate. In this work, we investigate the temperature dependence of charge-to-spin conversion in an epitaxial Bi(110)/Ni bilayer system using the second harmonic Hall method, revealing that both spin Hall conductivity and spin diffusion length augment with decreasing temperature. This finding suggests that spin scattering in (110) bismuth is dominated by the Elliott-Yafet mechanism, and the charge-to-spin conversion is mainly attributed to skew scattering.

A field-induced reentrant insulator state of a gap-closed topological insulator (Bi_{1-x}Sb_x) in quantum-limit states

In the extreme quantum limit states under high magnetic fields, enhanced electronic correlation effects can stabilize anomalous quantum states. Using band-tuning with a magnetic field, we realized a spin-polarized quantum limit state in the field-induced semimetallic phase of a topological insulator Bi_{1-x}Sb_x. Further increase in the field injects more electrons and holes to this state and results in an unexpected reentrant insulator state in this topological semimetallic state. A single-particle picture cannot explain this reentrant insulator state, reminiscent of phase transitions due to many-body effects. Estimates of the binding energy and spacing of electron-hole pairs and the thermal de Broglie wavelength indicate that Bi_{1-x}Sb_x may host the excitonic insulator phase in this extreme environment.

Sizable spin-transfer torque in Bi/Ni80Fe20 bilayer film

The search for efficient spin conversion in Bi has attracted great attention in spin-orbitronics. In the present work, we employ spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance to investigate spin conversion in Bi/Ni80Fe20(Py) bilayer films with continuously varying Bi thickness. In contrast with previous studies, sizable spin-transfer torque (i.e., a sizable spin-conversion effect) is observed in Bi/Py bilayer film. Considering the absence of spin conversion in Bi/yttrium-iron-garnet bilayers and the enhancement of spin conversion in Bi-doped Cu, the present results indicate the importance of material combinations to generate substantial spin-conversion effects in Bi.

Superconducting and density-wave instabilities of low dimensional conductors with a Zeeman coupling to a magnetic field

In the framework of the weak coupling renormalization group technique we examine the possible instabilities of the extended quasi-one-dimensional electron gas model with both intrachain and interchain electron-electron interactions, including the influence of umklapp scattering and the coupling of spins to a magnetic field. In the limit of purely repulsive intrachain interactions, we confirm the passage from singlet d-wave like superconductivity to an inhomogeneous FFLO state under magnetic field. The passage is accompanied by an anomalous increase of the upper critical field that scales with the antinesting distance from the quantum critical point joining superconductivity to antiferromagnetism in the phase diagram, as well as the strength of interactions. Adding weak repulsive interchain interactions promotes the passage from singlet to triplet $f$-wave superconductivity which is expanded under field by the development of a triplet FFLO state with zero angular momentum projection for the Cooper pairs. The connection between theory and experiments on the anomalous upper critical field in the Bechgaard salts is discussed.

Superconductivity and Density Wave in the Quasi-One-Dimensional Systems: Renormalization Group Study

The anisotropic superconductivity and the density wave have been investigated by applying the Kadanoff-Wilson renormalization group technique to the quasi-one-dimensional system with finite-range interactions. It is found that a temperature (T) dependence of response functions is proportional to exp(1/T) in a wide region of temperature even within the one-loop approximation. Transition temperatures are calculated to obtain the phase diagram of the quasi-one-dimensional system, which is compared with that of the pure-one-dimensional system. Next-nearest neighbor interactions (V_2) induce large charge fluctuations, which suppress the d_{x^2 -y^2}-wave singlet superconducting (dSS) state and enhance the f-wave triplet superconducting (fTS) state. From this effect, the transition temperature of fTS becomes comparable to that of dSS for large V_2, so that field-induced f-wave triplet pairing could be possible. These features are discussed to comprehend the experiments on the (TMTSF)_2PF_6 salt.

Renormalization Group Technique Applied to the Pairing Interaction of the Quasi-One-Dimensional Superconductivity

A mechanism of the quasi-one-dimensional (q1d) superconductivity is investigated by applying the renormalization group techniques to the pairing interaction. With the obtained renormalized pairing interaction, the transition temperature Tc and corresponding gap function are calculated by solving the linearized gap equation. For reasonable sets of parameters, Tc of p-wave triplet pairing is higher than that of d-wave singlet pairing due to the one-dimensionality of interaction. These results can qualitatively explain the superconducting properties of q1d organic conductor (TMTSF)2PF6 and the ladder compound Sr2Ca12Cu24O41.

Realization of odd-frequency p-wave spin-singlet superconductivity coexisting with antiferromagnetic order near quantum critical point

A possibility of the realization of the p-wave spin-singlet superconductivity ($p$SS), whose gap function is odd both in momentum and in frequency, is investigated by solving the gap equation with the phenomenological interaction mediated by the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation. The $p$SS is realized prevailing over the d-wave singlet superconductivity ($d$SS) in the vicinity of antiferromagnetic quantum critical pint (QCP) both on the paramagnetic and on the antiferromagnetic sides. Off the QCP in the paramagnetic phase, however, the $d$SS with line-nodes is realized as \textit{conventional} anisotropic superconductivity. For the present $p$SS state, there is no gap in the quasiparticle spectrum everywhere on the Fermi surface due to its odd frequency. These features can give a qualitative understanding of the anomalous behaviors of NQR relaxation rate on CeCu$_2$Si$_2$ or CeRhIn$_5$ where the antiferromagnetism and superconductivity coexist on a microscopic level.
