Chiral Correction to the Spin Fluctuation Feedback in two-dimensional p-wave Superconductors

Superconductivity 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

We consider the stability of the superconducting phase for spin-triplet p-wave pairing in a quasi-two-dimensional system. We show that in the absence of spin-orbit coupling there is a chiral contribution to spin fluctuation feedback which is related to spin quantum Hall effect in a chiral superconducting phase. We show that this mechanism supports the stability of a chiral p-wave state.
