The superconducting state of SRO is widely believed to have chiral p-wave order that breaks time reversal symmetry. Such a state is expected to have a spontaneous magnetization, both at sample edges and at domain walls between regions of…

Sr$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$ (SRO) is the prime candidate for chiral $p$-wave superconductor with critical temperature $T_{c}(SRO)\sim$1.5 K. Chiral domains with opposite chiralities $p_{x}\pm ip_{y}$ were proposed, but yet to be confirmed. We measure…

The local magnetic field induced by $\mu^{+}$ trapped at an interstitial site in a chiral superconductor with $p$-wave symmetry, such as Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, is discussed by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation on the two-dimensional square…

In chiral $p$-wave superconductors, magnetic flux patterns may appear spontaneously when translational symmetry is broken such as at surfaces, domain walls, or impurities. However, in the candidate material Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ no direct signs of…

The edge currents of two dimensional topological chiral superconductors with nonzero Cooper pair angular momentum---e.g., chiral $p$-, $d$-, and $f$-wave superconductivity---are studied. Bogoliubov-de Gennes and Ginzburg--Landau…

It is widely believed that the perovskite Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is an unconventional superconductor with broken time reversal symmetry. It has been predicted that superconductors with broken time reversal symmetry should have spontaneously…

We study theoretically the spontaneous edge current in a small chiral superconductor with surface roughness. We obtained self-consistent solutions of the pair potential and the vector potential by solving the quasiclassical Eilenberger…

Motivated by Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, edge quasiparticle states are analyzed based on the self-consistent solution of the Bogolyubov-de Gennes equations for a topological chiral $p$-wave superconductor. Using a tight-binding model of a square lattice…

The fragility of the chiral surface current of ($d_{zx}+id_{yz}$)-wave superconductor, a potential candidate for Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, against surface roughness is demonstrated utilizing the quasiclassical Eilenberger theory. Comparing the chiral…

One approach to probe the still controversial superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is to apply external perturbations that break the underlying tetragonal crystalline symmetry. Chiral $p_x+ip_y$ and $d_{xz}+id_{yz}$ states respond to such…

The effects of finite temperature, Meissner screening and surface roughness on the spontaneous edge current for higher chirality quasi-two dimensional superconductors are studied in the continuum limit using the quasiclassical Eilenberger…

Chiral superconductivity is a striking quantum phenomenon in which an unconventional superconductor spontaneously develops an angular momentum and lowers its free energy by eliminating nodes in the gap. It is a topologically non-trivial…

Proximity effects between ferromagnets (F) and superconductors (S) with broken time-reversal symmetry (T) are studied theoretically. For the S side we consider a chiral (p_x \pm ip_y)-wave, and a d_{x^2-y^2}-wave superconductor, the latter…

The microscopic mechanism of circular currents induced in the vicinity of a non-magnetic impurity is analyzed for the (time-reversal symmetry breaking) chiral superconducting state ${\bf d}({\bf k}) = \hat{{\bf z}} (k_x \pm i k_y)$ which is…

We present scanning SQUID microscopy data on the superconductors Sr2RuO4 (Tc = 1.5 K) and PrOs$_4$Sb$_{12}$ (Tc = 1.8 K). In both of these materials, superconductivity-related time-reversal symmetry-breaking fields have been observed by…

Sr$_{2}$RuO$_{4}$ is one of the most promising candidates of a topological superconductor with broken time-reversal symmetry, because a number of experiments have revealed evidences for a spin-triplet chiral $p$-wave superconductivity. In…

Chiral superconductors support chiral edge modes and potentially spontaneous edge currents at their boundaries. Motivated by the putative multiband chiral p-wave superconductor Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, we study the influence of the interference…

We study theoretically the proximity effect between ferromagnets (F) and superconductors (S) with broken time-reversal symmetry (${\cal T}$). A chiral $(p_x\pm ip_y)$-wave, and a $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductor, the latter of which can…

In this work we present a comprehensive study of the spontaneous currents in time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) multi-component superconductors with cubic crystalline symmetry. We argue, not limiting to cubic lattices, that spontaneous…

The edges of time reversal symmetry breaking topological superconductors support chiral Majorana bound states as well as spontaneous charge currents. The Majorana modes are a robust, topological property, but the charge currents are…
