Magnon-mediated superconductivity on ferromagnetic wallpaper fermions

Abstract

We study two-dimensional superconductivity mediated by magnetic fluctuations at the interface between a ferromagnetic insulator and the nonsymmorphic topological crystalline insulator with a fourfold-degenerate Dirac point, wallpaper fermion. We demonstrate that BCS pairing with zero center-of-mass momentum induces chiral p-wave superconductivity, and the Amperean pairing with center-of-mass momentum 2k F can give rise to a parity-mixed superconducting state. We find that the Amperean pairing exhibits a mixture of s-wave and p-wave components due to the multiband nature of the wallpaper fermion and the easy-axis anisotropy of the ferromagnetic insulator. Additionally, we find that the stability of the superconducting state with BCS and the Amperean pairing is governed by the easy-axis anisotropy.
