Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The re-entrant superconductivity (RSC), discovered in 2005, emerges near a field-induced quantum critical point (QCP) in a ferromagnetic (FM) superconductor URhGe. While the origin of this RSC is broadly thought to be associated with quantum critical fluctuations near the QCP, their exact nature had not been well identified. In this study, we conducted 59Co NMR study in a Co-doped single crystal of URhGe. The experiment revealed a divergence of electronic spin fluctuations in the vicinity of the QCP. Furthermore, the fluctuations observed are characteristic of a tricritical point. We have suggested these fluctuations as the pairing glue responsible for the RSC.
