Single vortex structure in two models of iron pnictide s± superconductivity
M A N Araújo1,2,4, M Cardoso3 and P D Sacramento1
Show affiliationsThe structure of a single vortex in a FeAs superconductor is studied in the framework of two formulations of superconductivity for the recently proposed sign-reversed s-wave (s±) scenario: (i) a continuum model taking into account the existence of an electron and a hole band, with a repulsive local interaction between the two; (ii) a lattice tight-binding model with two orbitals per unit cell and a next-nearest-neighbour attractive interaction. In the first model, the local density of states (LDOS) at the vortex centre, as a function of energy, exhibits a peak at the Fermi level, while in the second model the LDOS peak deviates from the Fermi level, and its energy depends on band filling. An impurity located outside the vortex core has little effect on the LDOS peak, but an impurity close to the vortex core can almost suppress it and modify its position.
