Intrinsically s-wave like property of triplet superconductors with spin-orbit coupling
read the original abstract
We have studied a general property of unconventional superconductors with spin-orbit coupling by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation and found that the two of four eigenfunctions for triplet pairing coincide with those for s-wave pairing when a relation holds between pairing symmetry and spin-orbit coupling, indicative of an intrinsically s-wave like property of triplet superconductors. Applying the result, we have studied the tunneling conductance in normal metal / insulator / unconventional superconductor junctions with a candidate of pairing symmetry of CePt$_3$Si. The effect of Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) is taken into account. We have found that the RSOC induces a peak at the energy gap like s-wave superconductors in the tunneling spectrum.
