Abstract:
Whether the doped t-J model on the Kagome lattice supports exotic superconductivity has not been decisively answered. In this Letter, we propose a new class of variational states for this model and perform a large-scale variational Monte Carlo simulation on it. The proposed variational states are parameterized by the SU(2)-gauge rotation angles, as the SU(2)-gauge structure hidden in the Gutzwiller-projected mean-field Ansatz for the undoped model is broken upon doping. These variational doped states smoothly connect to the previously studied U(1) π-flux or 0-flux states, and energy minimization among them yields a chiral noncentrosymmetric nematic superconducting state with 2×2-enlarged unit cell. Moreover, this pair density wave state possesses a finite Fermi surface for the Bogoliubov quasiparticles. We further study experimentally relevant properties of this intriguing pairing state.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
