Spin Splitting Induced in a Superconductor by an Antiferromagnetic Insulator
Spin Splitting Induced in a Superconductor by an Antiferromagnetic Insulator
Inspired by recent feats in exchange coupling antiferromagnets to an adjacent material, we demonstrate the possibility of employing them for inducing spin splitting in a superconductor, thereby avoiding the detrimental, parasitic effects of ferromagnets employed to this end. We derive the Gor'kov equation for the matrix Green's function in the …
