Josephson effect test for triplet pairing symmetry

Abstract

The critical current modulation and the spontaneous flux of the vortex states in corner Josephson junctions between Sr${}_2$RuO${}_4$ and a conventional s-wave superconductor are calculated as a function of the crystal orientation, and the magnetic field. For Sr${}_2$RuO${}_4$ we assume two nodeless p-wave pairing states. Also we use the nodal $f$-wave states $B_{1g}\times E_u$ and $B_{2g}\times E_u$, and one special p-wave state having line nodes. It is seen that the critical current depends solely on the topology of the gap.
