Abstract

Motivated by the presence of an extremely small electron pocket in the electronic band structure of infinite-layer (IL) nickelate superconductors, we systematically explore the superconducting (SC) properties of a two-dimensional Hubbard model influenced by an additional conduction band with small occupancy (dry Fermi sea). Our dynamic cluster quantum Monte Carlo calculations demonstrated the unusual impact of this additional dry metallic layer, which shifts the SC dome of the correlated Hubbard layer towards the overdoped regime, namely the $d$-wave SC can be enhanced (suppressed) in the overdoped (underdoped) regime. Simultaneously, the pseudogap (PG) crossover line shifts to the same higher doping regime as well. Our analysis revealed the interplay of the effective pairing interaction, pair-field susceptibility, and antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation in the underlying non-monotonic physics. We postulate on the physical picture of SC dome shift in terms of the Kondo-type electron-hole binding in the case of a dry additional conduction band. Our investigation provided valuable new insights on tuning the SC properties via external dry bands.

Evolution of the superconductivity dome in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

K.-S. Chen, Zi Yang Meng, Shuxiang Yang +3 more

In a recent publication [Chen et al., Phys. Rev. B 86, 165136 (2012)], we identified a line of Lifshitz transition points separating the Fermi liquid and pseudogap regions in the hole-doped two-dimensional Hubbard model. Here, we extend the study to further determine the superconducting transition temperature in the phase diagram. By means of large-scale dynamical cluster quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we are able to identify the evolution of the $d$-wave superconducting dome in the hole-dope side of the phase diagram, with next-nearest-neighbor hopping (${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$), chemical potential, and temperature as control parameters. To obtain the superconducting transition temperature ${T}_{c}$, we employ two-particle measurements of the pairing susceptibilities. As ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ goes from positive to negative values, we find the $d$-wave projected irreducible pairing vertex function is enhanced, and the curvature of its doping dependence changes from convex to concave, which fixes the position of the maximum superconducting temperature at the same filling ($n\ensuremath{\approx}0.85$) and constraints the dome from precisely following the Lifshitz line. We furthermore decompose the irreducible vertex function into fully irreducible, charge and spin components via the parquet equations, and consistently find that the spin component dominates the pairing vertex function in the doping range where the dome is located. Our investigations deepen the understanding of the phase diagram of the two-dimensional Hubbard model and, more importantly, pose new questions to the field. For example, we found as ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ goes from positive to negative values, the curvature of the pairing strength as a function of doping changes from convex to concave, and the nature of the dominant fluctuations changes from charge degree of freedom to spin degree of freedom. The study of these issues will lead to further understanding of the phase diagram of the two-dimensional Hubbard model and also the physics of the hole-doped cuprate high-temperature superconductors.

Interplay between the Pseudogap and Superconductivity in Doped Mott Insulators: a Cluster Dynamical Mean-Field Theory Study

Jinbin 晋斌 Liu 刘, Dao‐Xin Yao, Wéi Wú

Abstract We investigate the interplay between the pseudogap state and d-wave superconductivity in the two-dimensional doped Hubbard model by employing an eight-site cluster dynamical mean-field theory method. By tuning electron hopping parameters, the strong-coupling pseudogap in the two-dimensional Hubbard model can be either enhanced or suppressed in the doped Mott insulator regime. We find that in underdoped cases, the closing of pseudogap leads to a significant enhancement of superconductivity, indicating competition between the two in the underdoped regime. In contrast, at large dopings, suppressing the pseudogap is accompanied by a concurrent decrease in the superconducting transition temperature T c, which can be attributed to a reduction in antiferromagnetic correlations behind both the pseudogap and superconductivity. We elucidate this evolving relationship between pseudogap and superconductivity across different doping regimes.

Doping-induced crossovers between the dominant pairing correlations in the extended Hubbard model

Pavol Farkašovský, Lubomíra Regeciová

We examine the influence of hole doping on superconducting pairing symmetries in the two-dimensional Hubbard model extended by next-nearest-neighbor hopping, nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction, correlated hopping, exchange interaction and pair-hopping processes. Using Lanczos exact diagonalization supported by projector quantum Monte Carlo method, we calculate superconducting correlation functions corresponding to s-wave, extended s-wave, and d-wave pairing over a broad range of electron concentrations and interaction parameters. We find that hole doping acts as an efficient control parameter of superconducting pairing symmetry, giving rise to robust crossovers between the dominant pairing correlations. While extended s-wave pairing dominates throughout most of the overdoped regime, reducing the hole concentration progressively enhances d-wave correlations over large regions of the ground-state diagram. The critical doping associated with these crossovers depends strongly on the underlying interaction mechanism. In particular, correlated hopping and next-nearest-neighbor hopping substantially modify the location of the pairing-symmetry boundaries, whereas the local Hubbard interaction exhibits a comparatively weaker effect. In contrast to all other interaction channels, a finite nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction additionally stabilizes conventional s-wave state over a sizeable region of parameter space. Our results demonstrate that superconducting pairing symmetry in the extended Hubbard model is governed by a subtle interplay between carrier concentration and nonlocal electronic interactions.

D-Wave Pairing of the Two-Dimensional Extended t-J Model

C. T. Shih, Y. C. Chen, Taehyun Lee

In this paper, the effect of the next-earest (t ′ ) and third-earest (t ′ ′ ) hopping terms on superconductivity (SC) of the two-dimensional (2D) extended t-J model is studied by the variational Monte-Carlo (VMC) method. For hole-doped systems, the d-wave pairing correlation is suppressed by t ′ and t ′ ′ for underdoped cases, while it can be greatly enhanced by proper values of t ′ and t ′ ′ for the overdoped ones. This behavior results from the deformation of the Fermi surfaces. PACS numbers: 74.20.-z, 71.18.+y The 2D t-J model is one of the most popular models for studying the properties of the high-temperature superconductivity (HTS) [1, 2]. Yet the problem whether this model can give such high Tc for the cuprates or not is still under debate [4–7]. It has been well accepted that the next-nearest-neighbor (t ′ ) and the third-nearest-neighbor (t ′ ′) hopping terms are necessary for models to explain several experiments like angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) of HTS [3]. However, the effect of t ′ and t ′ ′ on pairing correlation is also controversial. Previous DMRG studies of the two-dimensional (2D) extended t-J model show that the SC is suppressed (enhanced) for negative (positive) next-nearestneighbor hopping t ′ /t [8]. But results from first-principle calculation show that t ′ /t = −0.3 maximizes SC at optimal doping [9]. The Hamiltonian of the extended t-J model is H = Ht + HJ = − ∑ ij tij(˜c † i,σ ˜cj,σ + H.C.) + J ∑

Correlation-driven d -wave superconducting dome from pseudogap spectral reconstruction

Yue Yuan, Ziwen Pan, F. Yang +1 more

Abstract Previous theoretical studies (Phillips et al 2020 Nat. Phys. 16 1175) based on the Hatsugai–Kohmoto model have examined the stability of s -wave superconductivity in strongly correlated systems, demonstrating that correlations alone can substantially modify superconducting (SC) behavior. Motivated by this perspective, but going beyond these studies, we perform self-consistent microscopic calculations of d -wave superconductivity in strongly correlated systems by employing an exactly solvable correlated model that hosts a pseudogap phase and a partially flat band (Worm et al 2024 Phys. Rev. Lett. 133 166501). We show that pseudogap correlations and SC order affect the low-energy spectrum in qualitatively different ways: the former leads to a momentum-localized suppression of spectral weight, whereas the latter induces a coherent reorganization of quasiparticle excitations. Moreover, we demonstrate that the interplay between SC order and pseudogap correlations naturally generates a SC dome in the temperature-doping phase diagram, with optimal doping located near the quantum critical point separating the pseudogap and metallic phases. Furthermore, d x 2 − y 2 -wave superconductivity is found to be remarkably robust, remaining energetically dominant over both d x y -wave and s -wave pairing channels across a wide doping range. Our results offer a potential route for a direct and controlled connection between pseudogap correlations and the emergence of the SC dome in cuprates.
