Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An electronic nematic state breaks orientational symmetry of the system but retains the other symmetries. This instability is driven by spontaneous symmetry breaking, as in the case of superconductivity and magnetism. Hence it is fundamentally important in materials science to establish the existence of the electronic nematic state. Here, motivated by an insight that electronic nematic correlation functions can be measured directly by Raman scattering, we study nematic fluctuations associated with orbital and spin, which are vigorously discussed in iron-based superconductors. We establish a theory of Raman scattering by both fluctuations and also propose a new mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity due to orbital fluctuations.
