Abstract

Within the slave-boson approach to the t-J model of high-T c superconductivity, the vertex of the spinon-mediated holon-holon interaction is exploited in detail to find out the critical temperature of holon pairing.

Evaluation of the effective holon-holon interaction by the slave-fermion method

Yongjun Liu, Jinming Dong, Chang-De Gong

The effective holon-holon interaction by exchanging the spinons in the resonating-valence bond model is derived by the slave-fermion method. The authors found that the interaction is attractive for the holon Cooper pair. Complexity due to Bose condensation of the spinons at T=0 has been discussed.

Effective holon-holon interaction in the resonating-valence-bond state

Y. R. Wang

The effective holon-holon interaction mediated by the spinon background is derived in the framework of the resonating-valence-bond model. The interaction is present only after the spinons undergo a transition to a spin superfluid state and is attractive for the holon Cooper pairs. The latter property of the holon-holon interaction gives further support to the conjecture that the two-dimensional Hubbard model by itself in the large-U limit could lead to superconductivity.

Slave-boson description of pseudogap metals in t−J models

Julia Brunkert, Matthias Punk

This work discusses a modified slave-boson representation of the t-J model, which accounts for spinon-holon bound states and gives rise to a metallic pseudogap phase with sharp, Fermi-arc like features in the electron spectral function.

Pairing and superconductivity in a spin-charge gauge approach to HTS cuprates

Michele Gambaccini

This thesis deals with different aspects of high temperature superconductivity in hole-doped cuprates. We assume the t - J model to describe the CuO2 planes of cuprates and we use a spin-charge gauge approach with spin-charge separation to describe holes in terms of a spinless fermion carrying the charge (holon) and a neutral boson carrying spin 1/2 (spinon), coupled by a slave-particle gauge field. In this framework we consider the effects of the presence of a finite density of incoherent holon pairs in the normal state as a precursor of superconductivity. We show that it is possible to take such pairs into account through a strongly direction dependent spectral weight for holons, which suppresses quasi-particles starting from the anti-nodal directions, and a wave function renormalization for the slave particle gauge field. In this way we prove that, when temperature is reduced, the formation of holon pairs causes both the deviation from linearity of the resistivity and the deviation from the constant value of the Knight shift. Moreover we point out the need for a negative next-nearest-neighbor hopping term ((t - t' - J model) to get a good continuum limit and to evaluate the Knight shift. These results are obtained through a Green's function, which follows naturally from the formalism and analytically interpolates between a Fermi liquid-like behavior and a d-wave superconductor when the coherence length of the holon pair order parameter is increased. The system preserves a finite Fermi surface until the superconducting transition, where it reduces to four nodes. Finally when, at lower temperatures, both the holon pairs and the RVB spinon pairs condense we enter the superconducting phase. In this phase we study the magnetic excitations showing how to extend to spin waves the hourglass-shape dispersion, found for spinons near the antiferromagnetic vector, if a suitable local mechanism of attraction between spinon and anti-spinon is assumed. The resulting spin wave Green's function, whose imaginary part is directly comparable with experiments, generates the hourglass with a finite gap between the two branches. Since the U(1) slave-particle gauge field gains mass in the superconducting phase via Anderson-Higgs mechanism, we propose the necessary mechanism of attraction comes from the unbroken Z2 subgroup of the U(1) gauge group.
