Abstract
We show two-dimensional “strong” topological superconductivity in d-wave superconductors (SCs). Although the topological invariant of the bulk wave function cannot be defined in dx2−y2-wave and dxy-wave SCs because of nodal excitations, the bulk energy spectrum of d-wave SCs on a substrate is fully gapped in a magnetic field. Then the superconducting state is specified by a nontrivial Chern number, and hence topologically nontrivial properties are robust against disorders and interactions. We discuss high-temperature topological superconductivity in cuprate SCs recently fabricated on a substrate. Furthermore, we show that the three-dimensional noncentrosymmetric d-wave SC is a Weyl SC hosting topologically protected Weyl nodes. Noncentrosymmetric heavy-fermion SCs, such as CeRhSi3 and CeIrSi3, are candidates for Weyl SCs.
