论文摘要

最近,具有非中心晶体结构的化合物引起了人们的广泛关注,以提供丰富的操场来寻找非常规的超导性。 Nbir $ _2 $ b $ _2 $是此类材料的新成员,其材料具有低于$ t _ {\ rm c} = 7.3(2)$ 〜K,超过Pauli限制的高临界场。在这里,我们报告了MUON自旋旋转($μ$ SR)实验,以探测该化合物中有效磁穿透深度的温度和场依赖性。我们的横向场 - $μ$ SR的结果表明,完全倾斜的$ s $ - 波超导体。此外,高场运输测量值还补充了上临界场的估计高值。值得注意的是,比率$ t _ {\ rm c} $/$/$λ^{ - 2}(0)$ nbir $ _2 $ _2 $ b $ _2 $($ \ sim $ 2)与非常规超导体的比率可比。零场$μ$ $ SR数据显示,在$ t _ {\ rm c} $之上和低于$ t的muon旋转放松率没有显着变化,证明时间反向对称性在超导状态下保留。提出的结果将刺激理论研究,以在这个独特的非中性对称系统中对超导性的起源进行微观理解。

Recently, compounds with noncentrosymmetric crystal structure have attracted much attention for providing a rich playground in search for unconventional superconductivity. NbIr$_2$B$_2$ is a new member to this class of materials harboring superconductivity below $T_{\rm c} = 7.3(2)$~K and very high upper critical field that exceeds Pauli limit. Here we report on muon spin rotation ($μ$SR) experiments probing the temperature and field dependence of effective magnetic penetration depth in this compound. Our transverse-field -$μ$SR results suggest a fully gaped $s$-wave superconductvity. Further, the estimated high value of upper critical field is also supplemented by high field transport measurements. Remarkably, the ratio $T_{\rm c}$/$λ^{-2}(0)$ obtained for NbIr$_2$B$_2$ ($\sim$2) is comparable to those of unconventional superconductors. Zero-field $μ$SR data reveals no significant change in the muon spin relaxation rate above and below $T_{\rm c}$, evincing that time-reversal symmetry is preserved in the superconducting state. The presented results will stimulate theoretical investigations to obtain a microscopic understanding of the origin of superconductivity with preserved time reversal symmetry in this unique noncentrosymmetric system.
