Amplitude Higgs Mode and Admittance in Superconductors with a Moving Condensate.

Abstract

We consider the amplitude (Higgs) mode in a superconductor with a condensate flow (supercurrent). We demonstrate that, in this case, the amplitude mode corresponding to oscillations δ|Δ|_{Ω}exp(iΩt) of the superconducting gap is excited by an external ac electric field E_{Ω}exp(iΩt) already in the first order in |E_{Ω}|, so that δ|Δ|_{Ω}∝(v_{0}E_{Ω}), where v_{0} is the velocity of the condensate. The frequency dependence δ|Δ|_{Ω} has a resonance shape with a maximum at Ω=2Δ. In contrast to the standard situation without the condensate flow, the oscillations of the amplitude δ|Δ(t)| contribute to the admittance Y_{Ω}. We provide a formula for admittance of a superconductor with a supercurrent. The predicted effect opens new ways of experimental investigation of the amplitude mode in superconductors and materials with superconductivity competing with other states.
