Researchers propose a scheme to enhance the transition temperature of atomic Fermi gases by tuning the pairing interaction strength and lattice spacing, leading to high Tc/TF ratios. This concept has the potential to simulate high Tc superconductivity and aid in the design of new superconductors.
A recent study resolves a long-standing debate about what happens at the microscopic level when matter transitions into a superconducting or superfluid state. Correlations between pairs of atoms in an ultra-cold gas were found to grow suddenly as the system was cooled below the superfluid transition temperature.
Theoretical studies have predicted the existence of exotic few-body correlations and interesting pairing states in spin-orbit coupled ultracold Fermi gases. Spin-orbit coupling modifies single-particle spectra, giving rise to these phenomena.
