An unconventional pairing mechanism in the heavy-fermion material $\mathrm{URu_{2}Si_{2}}$ is studied. We propose a mixed singlet-triplet $d$-density wave to be the hidden-order state in $\mathrm{URu_{2}Si_{2}}$. The exotic order is…

We propose an all-electrical experimental setup to detect and manipulate the amplitude of odd-frequency pairing in a double quantum dot. Odd-frequency pair amplitude is induced from the breakdown of orbital symmetry when Cooper pairs are…

Pair density waves, identified by Cooper pairs with finite center-of-mass momentum, have recently been observed in copper oxide based high T$_\textrm{c}$ superconductors (cuprates). A charge density modulation or wave is also ubiquitously…
Understanding the nature of Cooper pairs is essential to describe the properties of superconductors. The original proposal of Bardeen, Cooper, and Schrieffer (BCS) was based on electrons pairing with same energy and zero center-of-mass…
We analyze a possibility for odd-frequency pairing near a quantum critical point(QCP) in a metal. We consider a model with dynamical pairing interaction $V(\Omega_n)\sim 1/|\Omega_n|^\gamma$ (the $\gamma$-model). This interaction gives rise…
The quantum mechanics of the Josephson effect is the core ingredient for quantum technologies with superconducting circuits. A new avenue was recently opened in this field by predicting that the Josephson quantum mechanics in the odd parity…
The concept of intertwined orders has been introduced to describe the cooperative relationship between antiferromagnetic spin correlations and electron (or hole) pair correlations that develop in copper-oxide superconductors. This contrasts…
We consider Josephson junctions formed by multiple superconductors with distinct phases and explore the formation of nonlocal or inter-superconductor pair correlations. We find that the multiple superconductor nature offers an additional…
The study of improper phases in the context of multiferroic materials has a long history, but superconductivity has yet to be connected to the network of ferroic orders. In this work, we highlight an overlooked mechanism that couples…
The spin transport inside an odd-frequency spin-triplet superconductor differs from that of a conventional superconductor due to its distinct symmetry properties. We study spin transport inside an emergent odd-frequency superconductor by…
Since the discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in 1986 by Bednorz and Mueller, great efforts have been devoted to finding out how and why it works. From the d-wave symmetry of the order parameter, the importance of…
The simultaneous presence of polarity and metallicity or superconductivity in a material signifies the exotic polar metallic or superconducting (SC) state, while such materials are extremely rare due to their exclusive nature. Recently, the…

Pd-intercalated ErTe$_3$ is studied as a model system to explore the effect of "intertwined" superconducting and charge density wave (CDW) orders. Despite the common wisdom that superconductivity emerges only when CDW is suppressed, we…
