I. INTRODUCTION
Oscilla ions o he o de pa ame e ampli ude in
condensed-ma e sys ems a e o en called Higgs modes
(HMs) [1–5], in analogy wi h he Higgs boson in pa icle

wa es [7], supe fluids [8–10], cold a omic gases [11,12] and
supe conduc o s [2,13–27]. In gene al, one can call HMs all
he possible collec i e modes o he o de pa ame e , o he
han he Nambu-Golds one modes [4].
Higgs modes ha e been obse ed by Raman sca e ing in
supe conduc o s wi h cha ge densi y wa e o de [14,15,17,28]
and by he nuclea magne ic esonance in supe fluid 3He
[8–10]. In usual supe conduc o s he HMs a e cha ge neu al
and hus decoupled om cha ge cu en . In such sys ems he
obse a ion o HMs has been acili a ed by he de elopmen
o low- empe a u e e ahe z spec oscopy [18,19,24,29–32].
Wi h his echnique, HMs ha e been obse ed in NbTiN and
NbN compounds [18,19]. Higgs modes ha e been obse ed
indi ec ly as he AC linea conduc ance peak in cu en -
ca ying films o NbN [24] and Al [33].
He e we sugges a di e en mechanism allowing elec ical

ob ained wi h an ex e nal in-plane magne ic field B≈0.5T,

Wi h la ge enough a ea, he no mal-s a e unnel conduc ance

V. CONCLUSION
We ha e demons a ed ha spin and cha ge cu en s can
