Surface Bound States in n-band Systems with Quasiclassical Approach
Abstract
We discuss the tunneling spectroscopy at a surface in multi-band systems such as Fe-based superconductors with the use of the quasiclassical approach. We extend the single-band method by Matsumoto and Shiba [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 64, 1703 (1995)] into -band systems (). We show that the appearance condition of the zero-bias conductance peak does not depend on details of the pair-potential anisotropy, but it depends on details of the normal state properties in the case of fully-gapped superconductors. The surface density of states in a two-band superconductor is presented as a simplest application. The quasiclassical approach enables us to calculate readily the surface-angular dependence of the tunneling spectroscopy.
