Anisotropic Superfluidity in the Two-Species Polar Fermi Gas

Quantum Gases 2011-03-11 v3 Superconductivity

Abstract

We study the superfluid pairing in a two-species gas of heteronuclear fermionic molecules with equal density. The interplay of the isotropic s-wave interaction and anisotropic long-range dipolar interaction reveals rich physics. We find that the single-particle momentum distribution has a characteristic ellipsoidal shape that can be reasonably represented by a deformation parameter α\alpha defined similarly to the normal phase. Interesting momentum-dependent features of the order parameter are identified. We calculate the critical temperatures of both the singlet and triplet superfluid, suggesting a possible pairing symmetry transition by tuning the s-wave or dipolar interaction strength.
