3 OUTLINE Introduction Superconducting fluctuations Nernst signal of short-lived Cooper pairs Quantum ocillations across the quantum limit Nernst profiles in graphite and graphene Fractional states in bulk bismuth?
4 Thermoelectric coefficients In presence of a thermal gradient, electrons produce an electric field. Seebeck and Nernst effect refer to the longitudinal and the transverse components of this field. B hot E y J Q E x cold T S Ex xt N e y S xy E x y T [ B z E y x T ]

9 Nernst effect and superconcucting fluctuations
10 Nernst effect in the vortex state B Ey T A superconducting vortex is: A quantum of magnetic flux An entropy reservoir A topological defect Thermal force on the vortex : F=-S f T (S f : vortex entropy) The vortex moves The movement leads to a transverse voltage: E y =v x B z
11 Vortex-like excitaions in the normal state of the underdoped cuprates? Wang, Li & Ong, 06 A finite Nernst signal in a wide temperature range above T c
12 Nernst effect due to Gaussian fluctuations of the amplitude of the superconducting order parameter (Usshishkin, Sondhi & Huse, 2002) In 2D: Quantum of thermo-electric conductance (21 na/k) Magnetic length In two dimensions, the coherence length is the unique parameter! Both the amplitude and the T-dependence of xy is determined by x(t).
13 Our main result! 1. This theory is experimentally verified! 2. In a conventional dirty 2D superconductor, a signal due to fluctuating superconductivity can be resolved by Nernst measurements at T>>T c. A. Pourret et al. Nature Phys. 2, 683 (2006); Phys. Rev. B. 76, (2007) For a review see New J. Phys., 11, (2009)
14 R square () Superconductivity in Nb 0.15 Si 0.85 thin films 1500 d=125 A d=250 A 300 d=500 A d=1000 A T(K) The normal state is a simple dirty metal: l e ~a~ 1/k F!
15 A Nernst signal persists deep into the normal state!
16 A signal distinct from the vortex signal
17 The link between and xy In our case: s xx > 10 3 s xy s SC < 10-1 s xx when T > 1.1 T c Therefore: xy / B = s xx = / R square
18 Link to the superconducting coherence length yields This should be compared to the expression for a 2D dirty superconductor: x d vf k T B c Amplitude T-dependence = (T-T c /T c )
19 The shortest link between data and v F l e s m v F e B e F e k T v s k 2 3 Using specific heat and resistivity data, this yields:
20 Coherence length above T c x= ( xy /B) 1/2 (nm) sample 2 sample = (T-T c )/T c Satisfactory agreement for small!
21 The ghost critical field Sample 2 Contour plot of N= -E y /(dt/dx)
22 A unique correlation length Contour plot of N/B x d vf k T B c
23 Why does it work so well here? The Nernst signal of the normal electrons is negligible in this dirty superconductor! In Nb 0.15 Si 0.85 mobility is small and Fermi energy is large!

32 What happens beyond the quantum limit? The quantum limit (9T)
33 Peaks beyond the quantum limit KB, L. Balicas & Y. Kopelevich, Science 2007 Do not correspond to any obvious integer Landau level Are not periodic in 1/B Are concomittant with Hall anomalies

35 A surprise at still higher fields! Fauqué et al. New J. Phys (2009) No more Landau level crossing is expected!
36 All these states are expected to deteriorate metallicity!
37 The hig-field anomaly looks like a LL crossing! The T-dependence confirms a hole-ellipsoid origin! No critical temperature!
38 Topological and symmetry-breaking phase transitions (Xiao-Gang Wen, Adv. Phys. 1995) symmetry - breaking topological The ground state is a quantum crystal An order parameter A critical temperature Examples: SC, DW, The ground state is a quantum liquid No order parameter No critical temperature Examples: QHE (Integer and fractional)
