Spin susceptibility for orbital-singlet Cooper pair in the three-dimensional Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ superconductor
Abstract
We study the spin susceptibility of the orbital-singlet pairings, including the spin-triplet/orbital-singlet/-wave representation proposed by Suh \textit{et al}., [H.\ G.\ Suh \textit{et al}., Phys.\ Rev.\ Research \textbf{2}, 032023 (2020)], for a three-orbital model of superconducting SrRuO in three dimensions. For the pseudospin-singlet states represented in the band basis, the spin susceptibility decreases when reducing the temperature, irrespective of the direction of the applied magnetic fields, even if they are spin-triplet/orbital-singlet pairings in the spin-orbital space. However, because the pseudospin-triplet \textbf{d}-vector in the band basis is not completely aligned in the -plane (along -axis) owing to the strong atomic spin-orbit coupling, the spin susceptibility for spin-singlet/orbital-singlet/odd-parity pairings is reduced around - percent with the decrease of the temperature along the () axis. We can determine the symmetry of the pseudospin structure of the Cooper pair by the temperature dependence of the spin susceptibility measured by nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. Our obtained results serve as a guide to determine the pairing symmetry of SrRuO.
