Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Orbital nematicity is a hot topic in iron-based superconductors and leads to the so-called nematic state in terms of orbital degrees of freedom. In this state, the system breaks only xy symmetry, keeping the other symmetries unbroken. In the present work, considering the realistic situation in iron-based superconductors, we study the pairing mechanism in the presence of both orbital nematic fluctuations and spin fluctuations. It turns out that both are competitive and high-Tc can be reached by orbital nematic fluctuations, because spin fluctuations are found to have the self-restraint effect of the superconducting instability. The pairing gap is almost isotropic on each Fermi surface and it becomes highly anisotropic on the hole Fermi surfaces when the superconducting instability occurs in the nematic phase.
