Abstract

We study Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state of superconductors with and without inversion symmetry based on the Hubbard model on the square lattice near half-filling, using the random phase approximation. We show that center of mass momentum tends to be parallel to - or y-axis in the presence of inversion symmetry, while vector is likely to be perpendicular to the magnetic field in the absence of inversion symmetry. We also clarify that -wave pairing is favored and the hetero spin triplet -wave state is present in the FFLO state unlike state in the superconductors only with the Rashba type spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) originating from the broken inversion symmetry. The triplet -wave state is enhanced by magnetic field and the RSOC. This stems from the reduction of the spin susceptibilities by the magnetic field and the RSOC.
