title: Measurement of the 101Ru-Knight shift of superconducting Sr2RuO4 in a parallel magnetic field.
abstract: 101Ru-Knight shift (101K) in the spin-triplet superconductor Sr2RuO4 was measured under magnetic fields parallel to the c axis (perpendicular to the RuO2 plane), which is the promising superconducting (SC) d-vector direction in a zero field. We succeeded in measuring K(c) in the field range from 200 to 1200 Oe and at temperatures down to 80 mK, using nuclear-quadrupole-resonance spectra. We found that (101)K(c) is invariant with respect to the field and temperature on passing through H(c2) and T(c) above 200 Oe. This indicates that the spin susceptibility along the c axis does not change in the SC state, at least, in the field greater than 200 Oe. The results imply that the SC d vector is in the RuO2 plane when the magnetic field is applied to the c axis.
