Gossamer Superconductivity, New Paradigm?
Abstract
We shall review our recent works on d-wave density wave (dDW) and gossamer superconductivity (i.e. d-wave superconductivity in the presence of dDW) in high-T cuprates and CeCoIn. a) We show that both the giant Nernst effect and the angle dependent magnetoresistance (ADMR) in the pseudogap phases of the cuprates and CeCoIn are manifestations of dDW. b) The phase diagram of high-T cuprates is understood in terms of mean field theory, which includes two order parameters and , where one order parameter is from dDW and the other from d-wave superconductivity. c) In the optimally to the overdoped region we find the spatially periodic dDW, an analogue of the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state, becomes more stable. d) In the underdoped region where the Uemera relation is obtained within the present model. We speculate that the gossamer superconductivity is at the heart of high-T cuprate superconductors, the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn and the organic superconductors - (ET)Cu(NCS) and (TMTSF)PF.
