Abstract

The superconducting gap structure is an unresolved issue in most of unconventional superconductors. Here we measured the thermal conductivity of 2D unconventional superconductors, spin-triplet Sr₂RuO₄, heavy fermion CeCoIn₅ and organic κ-(BEDT-TTF)₂Cu(NCS)₂, in magnetic field rotating within the 2D planes. On the basis of the angular variation in the thermal conductivity, we demonstrate that the gap function is d(k) = Δ₀ẑ(k_x + ik_y)(cos ck_z + α) for Sr₂RuO₄, d_x(2)-y(2) for CeCoIn₅, and d_xy for κ-(BEDT-TTF)₂Cu(NCS)₂.
