Despite ongoing experimental and theoretical efforts, the pairing symmetry of superconductivity in Sr2RuO4 remains uncertain. In this study, a phenomenological model combining realistic electronic band structures and all symmetry-allowed multipole fluctuations was constructed to investigate potential pairing states within the Eliashberg framework. The findings suggest that the dx2-y2 + ig pairing state can naturally arise from the interplay of various types of fluctuations, including antiferromagnetic, ferromagnetic, and electric multipole fluctuations.
Despite many experimental and theoretical efforts, the pairing symmetry of superconductivity in Sr2RuO4 remains undecided. The accidentally degenerate dx2-y2 + ig is consistent with most current experiments and seems to be one of the most probable candidates, but we still lack a satisfactory theoretical mechanism for its appearance. Here we construct a phenomenological model combining realistic electronic band structures and all symmetry-allowed multipole fluctuations as potential pairing glues and make a systematic survey of major pairing states within the Eliashberg framework. Our calculations show that dx2-y2 + ig can arise naturally from the interplay of antiferromagnetic, ferromagnetic, and electric multipole fluctuations whose coexistence is manifested in previous experiments and calculations. Our work provides a physically reasonable basis supporting the possibility of dx2-y2 + ig pairing in superconducting Sr2RuO4.
