Spin–Orbit Coupling in Multilayer Superconductors with Charge Imbalance

2013 
In this study, we investigate the spin susceptibility in the superconducting state of a multilayer system with a layer-dependent Rashba spin–orbit coupling, representing a locally non-centrosymmetric superconductor. We show that the charge imbalance between different layers yields a strong layer dependence on the susceptibility, most significantly for a weak spin–orbit coupling, which is in contrast to a situation with an equally distributed charge. These results can be relevant for experimental test in multilayer high-\(T_{\text{c}}\) cuprates as well as in superconducting CeCoIn5/YbCoIn5 superlattices with more than two layers.
