Impurity Effects in a Vortex Core in a Chiral p-Wave Superconductor Within the t-Matrix Approximation
2014
We study the effects of non-magnetic impurity scattering on the Andreev bound states (ABS) in an isolated vortex in two-dimensional chiral p-wave superconductors numerically. We incorporate the impurity scattering effects into the quasiclassical Eilenberger formulation through the self-consistent t-matrix approximation. Within this scheme, we calculate the local density of states (LDOS) around two types of vortices: “parallel” (“anti-parallel”) vortex where the phase winding of the pair-potential coming from the vorticity and that coming from the chirality have the same (opposite) sign.
