Superconducting phase transition in planar fermionic models with Dirac cone tilting

Abstract

The chiral and superconducting gaps are studied in the context of a planar fermion model with four-fermion interactions. The effect of the tilt of the Dirac cone on both gaps is shown and discussed. Our results point to two different behaviors exhibited by planar fermionic systems. We show that there is a threshold value ${\tilde{t}}^{\ast }$ for the effective tilt parameter such that when $|\tilde{\mathbf{t}}|<{\tilde{t}}^{\ast }$, the superconducting phase persists for negative values of the superconducting coupling constant. For positive values of the superconducting coupling constant, the induction of a superconducting gap by a chemical potential exists and which is similar to the one seen in graphene-like systems. For $|\tilde{\mathbf{t}}|>{\tilde{t}}^{\ast }$ and a negative superconducting coupling constant, the superconducting phase can be present, but it is restricted to a smaller area in the phase portrait. Our analysis also shows that when $|\tilde{\mathbf{t}}|>{\tilde{t}}^{\ast }$ and for positive values for the superconducting coupling constant, the induction of a superconducting gap in the presence of a chemical potential is ruled out. In this case, the increase of the chemical potential works in favor of the manifestation of a metallic phase.
