The spin-triplet superconductivity induced by the charge fluctuation in extended Hubbard model

The pairing symmetry in the electron mechanism for superconductivity is explored when charge fluctuations coexist with spin fluctuations. The extended Hubbard model is adopted to obtain, with the fluctuation exchange approximation, a phase diagram against the on-site Coulomb repulsion U and the off-site repulsion V for the square lattice with second-neighbor hopping t'. We have found that (i) for large U(>9) a triplet superconductivity with a sin(kx+ky) symmetry can appear just below the charge density wave phase. The pairing is degenerate with sin(kx-ky), so a chiral sin(kx+ky)+isin(kx-ky) that breaks the time reversal symmetry should result, which is a candidate for the gap function on the gamma band of Sr2RuO4 and is consistent with a recent measurement of the specific heat. (ii) By systematically deforming the Fermi surface with varied t', we have identified the region where the triplet pairing is most favored to be the region where the Fermi surface traverses the van Hove singularity with the charge susceptibility strongly enhanced.

Phase diagram of the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model: Phase transitions between different pairing symmetries when charge and spin fluctuations coexist

In order to explore how superconductivity arises when charge fluctuations and spin fluctuations coexist, we have obtained a phase diagram against the off-site repulsion V and band filling n for the extended, repulsive Hubbard model on the square lattice with the fluctuation exchange approximation. We have found the existence of (i) a transition between dxy and dx2-y2 pairing symmetries, (ii) f-pairing in between the dx2-y2 and CDW phases for intermediate 0.5 f -> s when V (hence the charge fluctuations) are increased. All these are consequences of the structure in the charge and spin susceptibilities, which have peaks habitating at the common or segregated positions in k space.

Off-site-repulsion induced Triplet Superconductivity: a possibility of chiral p$_{x+y}$ pairing in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$

In order to probe the effect of charge fluctuations on triplet pairing, we study the pairing symmetry in the one-band Hubbard model having the off-site Coulomb repulsion ($V$) on top of the on-site repulsion as a model for the $γ$ band of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, a strong candidate for triplet pairing superconductor. The result, obtained with the dynamical cluster approximation combined with the quantum Monte-Carlo method, and confirmed from the fluctuation exchange approximation, shows that while $d_{x^2-y^2}$-pairing dominates over $p$ in the absence of $V$, introduction of $V$ makes $p_{x+y}$ and $d_{xy}$ dominant. The gap function for the chiral $p_{x+y}$+i$p_{x-y}$ has nodes that are consistent with the recent measurement of specific heat in rotated magnetic fields in the ruthenate. This suggests that the off-site repulsion may play an essential role in triplet superconductivity in this material.

Superconductivity induced by inter-band nesting in the three-dimensional honeycomb lattice

In order to study whether the inter-band nesting can favor superconductivity arising from electron-electron repulsion in a three-dimensional system, we have looked at the repulsive Hubbard model on a stack of honeycomb (i.e., non-Bravais) lattices with the FLEX method, partly motivated by the superconductivity observed in MgB2. By systematically changing the shape of Fermi surface with varied band filling n and the third-direction hopping, we have found that the pair scattering across the two-bands is indeed found to give rise to gap functions that change sign across the bands and behave as an s- or d-wave within each band. This implies (a) the electron repulsion can assist gapful pairing when a phonon-mechanism pairing exists, and (b) the electron repulsion alone, when strong enough, can give rise to a d-wave-like pairing, which should be, for a group-theoretic reason, a time-reversal broken d+id with point nodes in the gap.
