Site-selective NMR for odd-frequency Cooper pairs around vortex in chiral p-wave superconductors
Abstract
In order to identify the pairing symmetry with chirality, we study site-selective NMR in chiral p-wave superconductors. We calculate local nuclear relaxation rate 1/T1 in the vortex lattice state by Eilenberger theory, including the applied magnetic field dependence. We find that 1/T1 in the NMR resonance line shape is different between two chiral states ppm(=pxpmipy), depending on whether the chirality is parallel or anti-parallel to the vorticity. Anomalous suppression of 1/T1 occurs around the vortex core in the chiral p- wave due to the negative coherence term coming from the odd-frequency s-wave Cooper pair induced around the vortex with Majorana state.
