Do spin-polarised Cooper Pairs break the Pauli exclusion Principle? So far I learned that electrons of a Cooper pair should have opposite spin to account for Pauli's exclusion principle, because their other quantum numbers are the same. Is this understanding correct?
If so, I have been reading the review Linder, J., & Robinson, J. W. A. (2015). Superconducting spintronics, Nature Physics, 11(4), 307–315, also on arXiv:1510.00713. I came across how a magnetic inhomogeneity can transform single Cooper pairs into triplets by spin mixing and then by spin rotation transform the unpolarised ($S_{z} = 0$) spin triplet into spin-polarised spin triplets $\left|\uparrow\uparrow\right\rangle $ or $\left|\downarrow\downarrow\right\rangle $. 
1. How can such spin rotation be achieved? Just an alignment of the spin pairs along the local direction of the inhomogenous field?
2. Does this not violate Pauli's exclusion principle?
 A: The spin part may have become symmetric, but no problem if the spatial part goes antisymmetric.  Spatial space isn't useful for quasiparticles in condensed matter; momentum space is better. As the momentum vector makes a trek around the Fermi surface, the gap function changes sign. For the drab usual case of s-wave correlation, there is nothing much to say. For p-wave, the spatial part is taking care of Pauli for you.  
Since in crystalline matter, the relation between frequency and wavevector is not simple, and is really a multiplicity of relations due to the different bands, one can find cases of odd in space, and also odd in time. Then it's back to singlets for the spin.  So, I must correct how I started this answer: Either the spatial part or the time part of the pair must go antisymmetric. But not both.
As for how these things get created, each electron has its [math]B\dot \sigma[/math] term. The magnetic field is different in different places. As sure as a pothole cause my car to get bent out of shape, so does a nonuniform magnetic field bend a Cooper pair out of shape. Different torques on opposite spins. As I understand it, and I probably don't have this right, the result can be thought of as a quantum superposition of a nice straight singlet-spin Cooper pair and a triplet-spin one.  
A: I partially answered this question there : https://physics.stackexchange.com/a/62364/16689 : The triplet superconductivity does not violate the Pauli's exclusion principle because the wave function of the Cooper pair contains an orbital and a spin component. A triplet component is characterised by a symmetric spin part, and so the spatial component must be anti-symmetric in the exchange of the position of the electrons forming the Cooper pair. See the answer for more details.
The general way to produce spin triplet components is to associate a spin texture with a conventional (so called $s$-wave) superconducting condensate. You can do that by either

*A triplet pairing in proximity systems is not a symmetry of the condensate, it is just the expectation value of quantum correlations. In particular in Josephson junction, you may generate a non-trivial correlation between electrons on each side of the junction, without changing the symmetry of the superconducting gap in the electrodes.

*There is no clear signature of the triplet correlations as far as I know. Only indirect measurement can be done. The reason is that singlet and triplet correlations come together in real systems. Nevertheless, the magnetic properties interesting for superconducting spintronics applications are only due to the triplet component(s).

*In addition to the $m=-1$ triplet state $\left|\downarrow\downarrow\right\rangle $ and the $m=+1$ triplet state $\left|\uparrow\uparrow\right\rangle $, there is a third $m=0$ triplet state $\left|\uparrow\downarrow\right\rangle +\left|\downarrow\uparrow\right\rangle $ being symmetric in the exchange of spin. This last one does not participate to the magnetic properties of superconductor/ferromagnet hetero-structures, as well as the singlet $S=0$, $m=0$ state $\left|\uparrow\downarrow\right\rangle -\left|\downarrow\uparrow\right\rangle $.
