Hydrogen Doping Induced $p_x\pm i{p}_y$ Triplet Superconductivity in Quasi-One-Dimensional K${}_2$Cr${}_3$As${}_3$

Abstract

Quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) Cr-based pnictide K${}_2$Cr${}_3$As${}_3$ has aroused great research interest due to its possible triplet superconducting pairing symmetry. Recent experiments have shown that incorporating hydrogen atoms into K${}_2$Cr${}_3$As${}_3$ would significantly change its electronic and magnetic properties. Hence, it's necessary to investigate the impact of hydrogen doping in superconducting pairing symmetry of this material. Employing the hydrogen as an non-trivial electron-doping, our calculates show that, different from the $p_z$-wave obtained without hydrogen, the system exhibits $p_x\pm i{p}_y$ pairing superconductivity under specific hydrogen doping. Specifically, we adopt the random-phase-approximation approach based on a six-band tight-binding model equipped with multi-orbital Hubbard interactions to study the hydrogen-doping dependence of the pairing symmetry and superconducting $T_c$. Under the rigid-band approximation, our pairing phase diagram shows the spin-triplet pairing states is dominated through out the hydrogen-doping regime $x\in (0,0.7)$. Particularly, the $T_c\sim x$ curve shows a peak at the 3D-quasi-1D Lifshitz transition point, and the pairing symmetry around this doping level is $p_x\pm i{p}_y$. The physical origin of this pairing symmetry is that the density of states is mainly concentrated at $k_x(k_y)$ with large momentum. Due to the three-dimensional character of the real material, this $p_x\pm i{p}_y$-wave superconducting state possesses point gap nodes. We further provide experiment prediction to identify this triplet $p_x\pm i{p}_y$-wave superconductivity.
