Nodeless superconductivity in topologically nontrivial materials HfRuP and ZrRuAs

Topologically nontrivial electronic states are recently found in a family of noncentrosymmetric transition metal pnictidesTRuX(T=Zr, Hf;X=P, As), presenting a unique platform for superconductivity to interplay with topological electronic states and asymmetric spin-orbit coupling. Here, we investigate the superconducting order parameter of HfRuP and ZrRuAs by measuring the magnetic penetration depth changeΔλ(T)using a method based on the tunnel-diode oscillator. Both compounds show clear exponential temperature dependence inΔλ(T)at low temperatures, suggesting fully-gapped superconductivity. Moreover, the superfluid densities in both HfRuP and ZrRuAs can be reasonably described by ans-wave superconducting model.
