【题  目】Topological Superfluid Responses of Superconducting Dirac Semimetals


【摘  要】In this talk, He shows that topological constraints do not only dictate the geometric part of the superfluid stiffness, as it has been recently discussed, but can also govern the total superfluid stiffness. By introducing a general adiabatic approach for superfluid responses, He will demonstrate such a possibility by proving that the stiffness of a superconducting Dirac cone in two dimensions (2D) is proportional to its topological charge. By relying on the emergent Lorentz invariance of Dirac electrons, He will further discuss that the superfluid stiffness and the Josephson quantum capacitance can be unified in these systems. In addition, He will show that these topological responses persist upon effecting strain, are resilient against weak disorder, and can be experimentally controlled via a Zeeman field. Remarkably, the nonuniversal topological quantization of these two superfluid responses, yet implies the universal topological quantization of the admittance modulus of the superconducting Dirac system in units of conductance. The here-coined quantum admittance effect arises when embedding the superconducting Dirac system in an ac electrical circuit with a frequency tuned at the absorption edge. These findings can be in principle experimentally observed in graphene-superconductor hybrids.
