Coexistence of $s$- and $d$-wave gaps due to pair-hopping and exchange interactions

I investigate the superconductivity of the three-band $t$-$J$-$U$ model derived from the three-band Hubbard model using the Schrieffer-Wolff transformation. My model is designed considering the hole-doped high-$T_{\mathrm{c}}$ superconducting cup-rate. The model does not exclude the double occupancy of Cu sites by $d$ electrons, and there is a pair-hopping interaction between the $d$ and $p$ bands together with the exchange interaction. I analyse the superconducting transition temperature, electronic state, and superconducting gap function based on strong coupling theory and find that the superconductivity emerges due to the pair-hopping and exchange interactions via the Suhl-Kondo mechanism. In the superconducting state, the extended $s$- and $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconducting gaps coexist, where both charge fluctuations and $d$-$p$ band hybridization are key ingredients.

Inhomogeneous Electronic Distribution in High-Tc Cuprates

We theoretically investigate the doping evolution of the electronic state of high-Tc cuprate on both sides of the half-filling on the basis of the three-dimensional three-band Hubbard model with a layered structure using the Hartree-Fock approximation. Once a small amount of holes or electrons are doped into the half-filled state, our model exhibits the charge-transfer insulator-to-metal transition along with a chemical potential jump. At the same time, the doped holes or electrons are inhomogeneously distributed, and they tend to form clusters in the vicinity of the half-filling. This suggests the possibility of microscopic phase separation with the separation between the metallic and the insulating regions.

Unrestricted Hartree-Fock Analysis of Sr$_{3-x}$Ca$_x$Ru$_2$O$_7$

We investigated the electronic and magnetic structure of Sr$_{3-x}$Ca$_x$Ru$_2$O$_7$ ($0 \leq x \leq 3$) on the basis of the double-layered three-dimensional multiband Hubbard model with spin-orbit interaction. In our model, lattice distortion is implemented as the modulation of transfer integrals or a crystal field. The most stable states are estimated within the unrestricted Hartree-Fock approximation, in which the colinear spin configurations with five different spin-quantization axes are adopted as candidates. The obtained spin structures for some particular lattice distortions are consistent with the neutron diffraction results for Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$. Also, some magnetic phase transitions can occur due to changes in lattice distortion. These results facilitate the comprehensive understanding of the phase diagram of Sr$_{3-x}$Ca$_x$Ru$_2$O$_7$.

Three-Dimensional Multiband d-p Model of Superconductivity in Spin-Chain Ladder Cuprate

We study the superconductivity in the three-dimensional multiband d-p model, in which a Cu$_2$O$_3$-ladder layer and a CuO$_2$-chain layer are alternately stacked, as a model of the superconducting spin-chain ladder cuprate. $p_z$-Wave-like triplet superconductivity is found to be the most stable, and its dependence on interlayer coupling can explain the superconducting transition temperature dependence on pressure in real superconducting spin-chain ladder cuprates. The superconductivity may be enhanced if hole transfer from the chain layer to the ladder layer can be promoted beyond the typical transfer rate.

Kink structure in the electronic dispersion of high-Tc superconductors from the electron-phonon interaction

We investigate the electronic dispersion of high-Tc superconductor on the basis of the two-dimensional three-band Hubbard model with the electron-phonon interaction together with the strong electron-electron interaction. In our model, it is shown across the hole-doped region of high-Tc superconductor that the electron-phonon interaction makes a dispersion kink, observed along the nodal direction, and that the small isotope effect appears on the electronic dispersion.

Metallic State of the Three-band Hubbard Model with Super-lattice Structure

We investigate the dynamical superlattice correlation in the two-dimensional three-band Hubbard model on the basis of the unrestricted fluctuation exchange approximation. We calculate the one-particle spectral function, the spin correlation function and the charge correlation function at finite temperature. We find that some experimental results can be reproduced consistenly by taking inhomogenous distribution of Cu 3d electrons into account. The correlation functions suggest that several kinds of instabilities with spatial inhomogenieties exist in some regions, where these instabilities significantly affect the one-particle spectral fuctions.

Superconductivity in Multilayer Perovskite: Weak Coupling Analysis

We investigate the superconductivity of a three-dimensional d-p model with a multilayer perovskite structure on the basis of the second-order perturabation theory within the weak coupling framework. Our model has been designed with multilayer high-$T_c$ superconducting cuprates in mind. In our model, multiple Fermi surfaces appear, and the component of a superconducting gap function develops on each band. We have found that the multilayer structure can stabilize the superconductivity in a wide doping range.

Uniaxial-Pressure induced Ferromagnetism of Enhanced Paramagnetic Sr3Ru2O7

We report a uniaxial pressure-dependence of magnetism in layered perovskite strontium ruthenate Sr3Ru2O7. By applying a relatively small uniaxial pressure, greater than 0.1 GPa normal to the RuO2 layer, ferromagnetic ordering manifests below 80 K from the enhanced-paramagnet. Magnetization at 1 kOe and 2 K becomes 100 times larger than that under ambient condition. Uniaxial pressure dependence of Curie temperature T_C suggests the first order magnetic transition. Origin of this uniaxial-pressure induced ferromagnetism is discussed in terms of the rotation of RuO6 octahedra within the RuO2 plane.

Theoretical Description of Nearly Discontinuous Transition in Superconductors with Paramagnetic Depairing

Based on a theoretical argument and Monte Carlo simulations of a Ginzburg-Landau model derived microscopically, it is argued that, in type-II superconductors where {\it both} the paramagnetic {\it and} orbital depairings are important, a strong first-order transition (FOT) at $H_{c2}$ expected in the mean field (MF) approximation never occurs in real systems and changes due to the fluctuation into a crossover. The present result explains why a {\it nearly} discontinuous crossover at $H_{c2}$ with {\it no} intrinsic hysteresis is observed only in a clean superconducting material with a singlet pairing and a high condensation energy such as CeCoIn$_5$.

Lattice distortions, incommensurability, and stripes in the electric model for high-Tc cuprates

Striped superconductivity with lattice distortions is investigated based on the three-band Hubbard model for high-Tc cuprates. A stable inhomogeneous striped state is determined in the low-temperature tetragonal (LTT) phase with lattice distortions using a quantum variational Monte Carlo method. The ground state has vertical or horizontal hole-rich arrays coexisting with incommensurate magnetism and superconductivity induced by several percent lattice distortions. The superconductivity order parameter oscillates according to the inhomogeneity in the antiferromagnetic background with its maxima in the hole-rich regions, and the superconductivity condensation energy is reduced as the doping rate decreases.

Superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ Mediated by Coulomb Scattering

We investigate the superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ on the basis of the three-dimensional three-band Hubbard model. We propose a model with Coulomb interactions among the electrons on the nearest-neighbor Ru sites. In our model the intersite Coulomb repulsion and exchange coupling can work as the effective interaction for the spin-triplet paring. This effective interaction is enhanced by the band hybridization, which is mediated by the interlayer transfers. We investigate the possibility of this mechanism in the ground state and find that the orbital dependent spin-triplet superconductivity is more stable than the spin-singlet one for realistic parameters. This spin-triplet superconducting state has horizontal line nodes on the Fermi surface.

Anisotropic Optical Conductivity of Nd2-xCexCuO4 Thin Films

Opticcal conductivity spectra $σ_1(ω)$ of Nd2-xCexCuO4 thin films, measured by the reflectance-transmittance method (R-T method) which has been proposed to investigate far-infrared spectroscopy, are investigated based on the anisotropic pairing model. Precise measurements of the frequency-dependent conductivity enable us to examine quantitatively the nature of the superconducting gap through infrared properties in the electron-doped high-Tc superconductors. We show that the behavior of optical conductivity $σ_1$ is consistent with the anisotropic superconducting gap and is well explained by the formula for d-wave pairing in the low-energy regime of the far-infrared region. Our results suggest that the electron-doped cuprate superconductors Nd2-xCexCuO4 have nodes in the superconducting gap.

Real-Space Renormalization Group Study of Effects of Anisotropy on S=1 Random Antiferromagnetic Chain

We investigate S=1 antiferromagnetic quantum spin chain, whose exchange couplings are strongly disordered. By the real-space renomalization group method, introduced by Ma, Dasgupta, and Hu, the renormalization group flows are analyzed numerically in a plain of the anisotoropy of the exchange coupling vs. the staggered magnetic field. As the result, the Heisenberg point, which has a zero average of the exchange coupling anisotropy, is specified as the unstable fixed point against the anisotropy.

Spin Susceptibility and Specific Heat in the d-p Model

We analyze the two-dimensional {\it d-p} model, considering both antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation and $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconducting fluctuation. We adopt the fluctuation-exchange approximation in order to derive both normal and anomalous vertices composed only of the renormalized {\it d}-electron Green function and the on-site repulsive interaction among the {\it d}-electrons. Using these vertices, we derive a $t$-matrix as a superconducting fluctuation propagator. Then, we obtain self-consistent solutions in which the system is close to antiferromagnetic instability. In our solutions, the superconducting fluctuation couples strongly with the quasiparticle state and this causes the anomalous behavior in the temperature dependences of spin susceptibility and specific heat.

Strong Coupling Approach to the d-p Model on the Basis of Fermi Liquid Theory

We study the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ of the bilayer d-p model with $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wavelike attractive interaction based on the formalism first employed by Nozières and Schmitt-Rink. In the strong coupling regime, $T_c$ obtained through this formalism are much suppressed, compared with those through Thouless criterion only. We also find that, whether the interlayer coupling exsists or not, $T_c$ is almost propotional to the Fermi energy in the strong coupling regime. Thus, we can reproduce the essential nature in the underdoped region.
