Research paper thumbnail of Electronic Structure and Superconductivity in Solid Solutions Based on In, Pb, and TI

Physica Status Solidi (b), 1977

This anomaly is caused by changed of electronic structure. Results of Tc-measurements in ternary and quaternary indium solid solutions in the Tc anomaly area are presented. The minimum value of Tc for these alloys occurs at Z = 2.98. The effective Z, denoted Z*, is determined from the alloy composition at the minimum Tc resulting in following numbers: (2.0 ± 0.1) for Mg, (2.6 ± 0.1) for T1, (3.9 ± 0.1) for Pb, (4.0 ± 0.1) for Sn, and (3.25 ± 0.2) electrons/atom for Hg. Unique dependence of Tc on Z* is found for each group of alloys when the effective electron concentrations are calculated from the Z*-number. In den Indiumlegierungen tritt eine Anomalie der Sprungtemperatur Tc bei einem Elektronen-Atom-Verhaltnis von Z = 2,98 auf, die auf Anderungen der Elektronenstruktur der Legierung zuryckgefuhrt wird. Es werden die Ergebnisse von Tc-Messungen an ternaren und quarternaren Indiumlegierungen im Bereich der Anomalie mitgeteilt. Bei Z = 2,98 hat Tc ein Minimum. Aus der Legierungszusammensetzung im Minimum werden die effektiven Z*-Werte bestimmt. Sie betragen fur Mg (2,0 ±0,1), fur T1 (2,6 ±0,1), fur Pb (3,9 ±0,1), fur Sn (4,0 ± 0,1) und fur Hg (3,25 ± 0,2) Elektronen/Atom. Wenn die effektive Elektronenkonzentration fur Z* berechnet wird, kann man fur jede Legierungsgruppe eine eindeutige Abhangigkeit der Sprungtemperatur Tc von Z* finden.

We study the influence of the hybridization introduced by the self-energy and how it can affect the shape of the characteristic lower, upper and middle-energy resonance.

Research paper thumbnail of Spin Fluctuation Effects in Normal and s-Superconducting States in Hubbard Systems

The effective potentials considered are found from spin fluctuations within a three-dimensional Hubbard single band model. Vertex effects are included and discussed within this formalism. We find that the self-energy tends to violate the Luttinger theorem when the bandwidths are narrowed. We note that when the bands are further narrowed, the corresponding Eliashberg-like equations tend to yield superconductivity.

The dynamically screened hole-hole interaction is deduced from the random-phase approximation. We calculate the pair potential, the spectral function and the density of states of the interacting system, as a function of the quasimomentum of the bubble polarization.

The influence of vertex effects on both the potential and the solutions of the resulting Eliashberg-like equations is discussed for the different band conditions and coupling strength.

The quasiparticle band structures are determined from an appropriate modification of the augmented plane-wave method, and the renormalized density of states is found from the spectral functions. We calculate the quasiparticle structure of a Ce system, which presents the three characteristic types of resonances of the pseudogap regime mentioned in paper I of this series and also the electronic structure of Y-Ba-Cu-O, which seems to display the characteristics of a standard Fermi liquid or a marginal Fermi liquid.

This analysis allows us to establish the conditions of the electronic structure for obtaining coupling and superconductivity in these materials.
