Many-body effects on superconductivity mediated by double-magnon processes in altermagnets

Kristian Mæland, Bjørnulf Brekke, Asle Sudbø

Altermagnets exhibit a large electron spin splitting which can be understood as a result of strong coupling between itinerant electrons and localized spins. We consider superconduc…

Two-dimensional altermagnets: Superconductivity in a minimal microscopic model

Bjørnulf Brekke, Arne Brataas, Asle Sudbø

We propose a minimal toy model for a two-dimensional altermagnet. The model unravels altermagnetic properties at a microscopic level. We find spin-split electron- and non-degenerat…
