Spin susceptibility of superconductors with strong spin-orbit coupling
Abstract
We show that in some trigonal and hexagonal crystals the Zeeman coupling of band electrons with an external magnetic field is strongly anisotropic and necessarily vanishes along the main symmetry axis. This leads to qualitative changes in the temperature dependence of the electron spin susceptibility in the superconducting state. In particular, the power-law exponents at low temperatures due to the contribution of the nodal quasiparticles are considerably modified compared to their textbook values.
