摘要

为追溯Re基超导体中时间反演对称性破缺(TRSB)的起源,我们对非中心对称超导Re0.82_{0.82}Nb0.18_{0.18}Tc=8.8T_c = 8.8 K)与中心对称Re(Tc=2.7T_c = 2.7 K)进行了比较性μ子自旋旋转/弛豫(μ\muSR)研究。在Re0.82_{0.82}Nb0.18_{0.18}中,低温超流密度与电子比热证明了全带隙超导态,其增强的能隙幅值与比热跃变暗示中等强度的电子-声子耦合。在Re0.82_{0.82}Nb0.18_{0.18}与纯Re中,零场μ\muSR揭示的TcT_c以下自发磁场表明时间反演对称性破缺,从而属非常规超导。中心对称Re与非中心对称ReTTTT = 过渡金属)中TRSB的伴随出现,而在同构非中心对称超导体Mg10_{10}Ir19_{19}B16_{16}与Nb0.5_{0.5}Os0.5_{0.5}中却得以保持,强烈提示Re的局域电子结构对理解Re与ReTT中的TRSB超导态至关重要。我们讨论了与观测相容的超导序参量对称性。
