Abstract

We study a mechanism for superconductivity in quasi-one-dimensional materials with Ising anisotropy. In an isolated chain Ising anisotropy opens a spin gap; if interchain coupling is sufficiently weak, single particle hopping is suppressed and the physics of coupled chains is controlled by a competition between pair hopping and exchange interaction. Spin-density-wave and triplet superconductivity phases are found separated by a first-order phase transition. For particular parameter values a second-order transition described by SO(4) symmetry is found.
