Fe-based superconductors: unity or diversity?
Steven A. Kivelson, Hong Yao
Does the high temperature superconductivity observed in the newly discovered iron-pnictide materials represent another example of the same essential physics responsible for superco…
d-wave to s-wave to normal metal transitions in disordered superconductors
B. Spivak, P. Oreto, S. A. Kivelson
We study suppression of superconductivity by disorder in d-wave superconductors, and predict the existence of (at least) two sequential low temperature transitions as a function of…
Theory of the striped superconductor
Erez Berg, Eduardo Fradkin, Steven A. Kivelson
We define a distinct phase of matter, a "pair density wave" (PDW), in which the superconducting order parameter varies periodically as a function of position such that when ave…
A route to high temperature superconductivity in composite systems
E. Berg, D. Orgad, S. A. Kivelson
Apparently, some form of local superconducting pairing persists to temperatures well above the maximum observed in underdoped cuprates, \textit{i.e.} is suppressed due…
Theory of Electron Nematic Order in LaOFeAs
Chen Fang, Hong Yao, Wei-Feng Tsai +2
We study a spin quantum Heisenberg model on the Fe lattice of the rare-earth oxypnictide superconductors. Using both large and large methods, we show that this model ex…
Theory of quantum metal to superconductor transitions in highly conducting systems
B. Spivak, P. Oreto, S. A. Kivelson
We derive the theory of the quantum (zero temperature) superconductor to metal transition in disordered materials when the resistance of the normal metal near criticality is small…
