Non-centrosymmetric Superconductivity and Antiferromagnetic Order: Microscopic discussion of CePt3Si
Abstract
The influence of antiferromagnetic order on the superconductivity in the non-centrosymmetric heavy fermion compound CePt3Si and related materials is discussed. Based on our RPA analysis for the extended Hubbard model two phases could be stabilized by a spin fluctuation induced pairing, with either dominantly p-wave or d-wave symmetry. The antiferromagnetic order plays an essential role for the low-energy physics, in particular, for the appearance of line nodes in the gap and the enhancement of spin susceptibility below T c. Various properties and possible phase diagrams under pressure are analyzed. The present experimental situation suggests that the p-wave phase is most likely realized in CePt3Si.
