Abstract

In quasi-low-dimensional type II superconductors, the orbital pair-breaking effect is considerably reduced when the magnetic field is exactly aligned in a direction parallel to the highly conducting layer. Then, since the superconducting phase survives up to a very high magnetic field comparable to the Pauli-paramagnetic limit, we could expect some drastic phenomena, such as the Fulde–Ferrell–Larkin–Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state. In this paper, we discuss the condition of the tilt angle for the appearance of the FFLO state, and also discuss the stable spatial structure of the FFLO state. Further, we show an example of a quasi-two-dimensional system in which the FFLO state is remarkably enhanced, that is, a two-dimensional tight binding system of appropriate hole concentrations.
