Description

We performed 59Co NMR and NQR measurements of Na0.35CoO2.1.3H2O superconductor with Tc of about 5K in order to decide the pairing symmetry of the Cooper pairs. From NQR measurements, it was found that the increase in 1/T1T above Tc is attributed to nearly ferromagnetic fluctuations. The spin contributed Knight shift was estimated by δν/(γNHi) vs. (γNHi)-2 plot. Consequently, the Knight shift below Tc is invariant at 7T. This result suggests the possibility of unconventional superconductivity with the spin-triplet state of p- or f-wave pairing symmetry
