Possible superconductivity with Bogoliubov Fermi surface in lightly doped Kagome U(1) spin liquid

5 Mar 2020  ·  Yi-Fan Jiang, Hong Yao, Fan Yang ·

Whether the doped t-J model on the Kagome lattice supports exotic superconductivity has not been decisively answered. In this paper, we propose a new class of variational states for this model and perform 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) $\pi$-flux or $0$-flux states, and energy minimization among them yields a chiral noncentrosymmetric nematic superconducting state with $2 \times 2$-enlarged unit cell. Moreover, this pair density wave state possesses a finite Fermi surface for the Bogoliubov quasi particles. We further study experimentally relevant properties of this intriguing pairing state.
