Roles of Antiferromagnetic Fluctuation in High Field Phase Diagram of Superconductors with Strong Paramagnetic Depairing

Abstract

The high field phase diagram and magnetic properties of CeCoIn5 below Hc2(0) are examined from the picture regarding the high field and low temperature (HFLT) phase as a possible Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) vortex lattice. Crucial roles of antiferromagnetic (AFM) fluctuations enhanced close to Hc2(0) are stressed. The FFLO vortex lattice with a longitudinal modulation parallel to the field is stabilized compared with those with lateral modulations as a consequence of the presence of AFM fluctuations. Further, an unusual field-induced enhancement of the flux distribution is argued to be a consequence of interplay between the paramagnetic depairing and AFM fluctuation, both of which are enhanced with increasing field.
