We investigate the field-angle-dependent zero-energy density of states for YNi2B2C with using realistic Fermi surfaces obtained by band calculations. Both the 17th and 18th bands are taken into account. For calculating the oscillating density of states, we adopt the Kramer-Pesch approximation, which is found to improve accuracy in the oscillation amplitude. We show that superconducting gap structure determined by analyzing STM experiments is consistent with thermal transport and heat capacity measurements.
Field-angle dependent specific heat measurement has been done on the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn5 down to ~ 0.29 K, in a magnetic field rotating in the tetragonal c-plane. A clear fourfold angular oscillation is observed in the specific heat
To determine the superconducting gap function of YNi2B2C, we calculate the local density of states (LDOS) around a single vortex core with the use of Eilenberger theory and the band structure calculated by local density approximation assuming various
By measuring angular-oscillation behavior of the heat capacity with respect to the applied field direction, one can detect the details of the gap structure. We introduce the Kramer-Pesch approximation (KPA) as a new method to analyze the field-angle-
We theoretically investigate the quasiparticle scattering rate $varGamma$ inside a vortex core in the existence of non-magnetic impurities distributed randomly in a superconductor. We show that the dependence of $varGamma$ on the magnetic field direc
We present very low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments on single crystalline samples of the superconductor $beta$-Bi$_2$Pd. We find a single fully isotropic superconducting gap. However, the magnetic field dependence of the i
