Localized-Itinerant Crossover in Pu 5f electrons

Conventional Electrons pair with opposite spin and momentum  is finite over entire Fermi surface Finite   exponential T- dependence of physical properties below T c C ~ T 1 -1 ~ e -  /kT Superconductivity destroyed by magnetic impurities BCS theory  electron- lattice interaction is “glue” Unconventional Electrons pair with more complicated spin/momentum relationships  is zero over certain parts of Fermi surface Gap zeros  power law dependence of physical properties below T c C ~ T 2, T 1 -1 ~ T 3 (line nodes) Magnetic “impurities” essential for superconductivity Magnetic (spin) fluctuations are “glue” ? Conventional vs Unconventional Superconductivity s-wave: isotropic gap kxkx kyky Fermi surface  kxkx kyky d-wave: nodes in k-space where gap vanishes J I J e-e- f e-e- f

PuCoGa 5 Superconductivity Perfect diamagnetism (small Meissner effect) and zero resistivity below T c =18.5 K C/T  bulk superconductivity Assuming BCS weak coupling,  C/  T c =1.43   =77 mJ/molK 2 J. L. Sarrao et al., Nature ‘02

PuMGa 5 & CeMIn 5 : T c and c/a CeMIn 5 & PuMGa 5 isostructural but order of magnitude higher T c in Pu-materials dlnT c /d(c/a)  100 in both; ‘predicts’ PuIrGa 5 not superconducting and it is not Common underlying physics Origin of T c  c/a correlation in both 4f and 5f homologs? Bauer et al. PRL ‘04 2D 3D 2D 3D Monthoux & Lonzarich., PRB ‘02

PuMGa 5 & CeCoIn 5 : Similar T-P Phase Diagrams NFL normal state for CeCoIn 5 and PuMGa 5 T-P phase diagrams difficult to reconcile with phonon mediated superconductivity Similar diagram to CeIn 3 Tuning of relevant spin fluctuations (Magnetically mediated superconductivity) Sidorov et al. PRL ‘01, Griveau et al. ICM (2003), Bauer et al. PRL (2004) CeCoIn 5 + bandwidth tuning = PuCoGa 5, T c : 2.3 K  18.5 K

Energy Scale Tuning in CeCoIn 5 & AMGa 5 “S”-shape of  (T) curve suggests role of spin fluctuations important Increase in bandwidth may be responsible for large increase in T c T max (K) CeCoIn 5 50 PuCoGa UCoGa  (mJ/mol K 2 )

NMR: Spin Singlet Superconductor Cooper pairs have singlet pairing:  spin = ( |  > - |  > ) /  2 Odd parity under particle exchange To satisfy Fermi statistics,  (r) must have even parity: L = 0, 2, … (s-, d-, …wave) Finite residual spin susceptibility from impurities (radioactive decay) Cooper pair  (r)  spin (N. Curro, Nature ‘05)

Spin Lattice Relaxation Power law behavior: T 1 -1 ~ T 3 Most likely a d-wave superconductor! Power law behavior of normal state T 1 -1  Proximity to AFM QCP (T. Moriya,‘85,‘96) Sakai ‘05

Scaling of Normal and Superconducting States Single energy scale T sf (or T K ) largely responsible for pairing mechanism T 1 T scales with T/T c : s-wave: T 1 T ~ constant (Fermi liquid) d-wave: T 1 T ~ ( T – T 0 )  (Antiferromagnetic fluctuations) (S. Nakamura,‘96) Curro et al. Nature ‘05
