Field-induced transition from even to odd parity superconductivity in CeRh2As2
Prof. Elena Hassinger, Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids
Abstract: I will report on the discovery of unconventional superconductivity in CeRh2As2. Although it appears at temperatures below 1 K, the superconducting state is extremely robust under the application of magnetic fields and presents a unique phase diagram.
The phase diagram can be understood by taking into account the staggered spin-orbit coupling at the Ce position. In that picture, the magnetic field drives a transition from even to odd parity superconductivity. The angle dependence of the critical fields strongly reinforces this interpretation. In the end, I will also give information on the ordered phases found in the normal state.
