Title: Order parameter texture of unconventional superconductor
Abstract: This talk will focus on various non-uniform features of unconventional superconductors. The first part of the talk will be on the “fragile superconductivity” in YBCO, which is an inhomogeneous superconducting phase living inside charge-density-wave dislocations. The second part of the talk will be on the triplet pair-density-wave, where I will discuss the effect of inversion symmetry breaking in understanding the STM experiment in UTe2.
