Abstract

Starting from a tight-binding model on the kagome lattice near the van Hove filling, the superconducting (SC) properties are investigated self-consistently by using the Bogoliubov–de Gennes equations with the consideration of the inequivalent third-neighbor (TN) bonds. Near the van Hove filling, the most favorable SC pairings are found to derive from the electrons belonging to the same sublattice sites, including the on-site s-wave and the spin-singlet/spin-triplet TN pairings. The inequivalent TN bonds will result in multiple SC components with different orbital angular momenta for the TN SC pairings. Whereas the density of states and the temperature (T) dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation rate (T1−1) exhibit distinct line shapes in the SC state for the three cases, a peak structure in the T dependence of T1−1 can be found for all of them just below Tc as a result of the van Hove singularity, even though the SC gap has nodes. The effects of magnetic vortices on the low-energy excitations and on the T dependence of T1−1 with the implications of the results are also discussed for all the cases.
