Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have investigated the Cooper pairing symmetry of the superfluid state in three-component repulsive fermionic atoms in optical lattices. We have found that when two repulsions are stronger (weaker) than the other, the pairing symmetry is an extended s wave (a d_{x2-y2} wave). The results suggest that three-component 6Li atoms in optical lattices act as quantum simulator that can control the Cooper pairing symmetry. The results are also important to reveal the origin of the s-wave superconductivity in U-based materials. Next, we have investigated Kitaev-Heisenberg model on honeycomb lattices, and have found that nontrivial behavior originating from Majorana fermions emerges in magnetically ordered phase close to the Kitaev spin liquid (KLS) phase. We have further proposed an effective model for a KSL-material RuCl3, and have succeeded in explaining the unresolved experimental results for inelastic neutron scattering and specific heat not only qualitatively but also quantitatively.
