Theory of spin-fluctuation induced superconductivity in iron-based superconductors

Thesis/Dissertation Zhang, Junhua

In this dissertation we focus on the investigation of the pairing mechanism in the recently discovered high-temperature superconductor, iron pnictides. Due to the proximity to magnetic instability of the system, we considered short-range spin fluctuations as the major mediating source to induce superconductivity. Our calculation supports the magnetic fluctuations as a strong candidate that drives Cooper-pair formation in this material. We find the corresponding order parameter to be of the so-called ss-wave type and show its evolution with temperature as well as the capability of supporting high transition temperature up to several tens of Kelvin. On the other hand, ourmore »« less

First-principles investigation of the superconducting properties of Tl sub 2 Ba sub 2 CaCu sub 2 O sub 8 and the spin instability of Cr using a new approach of configuration-interaction of band-structure wave functions

Journal Article Chui, S T ; Kasowski, R V ; Hsu, W Y - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (USA)

Antiferromagnetism and superconductivity result from fluctuations of electrons in states near the Fermi energy driven by the Coulomb interaction. We investigate the superconducting instability for Tl{sub 2}Ba{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8} for the perfect and distorted tetragonal crystal structure and test this method by studying the antiferromagnetic state of Cr utilizing a new {ital ab} {ital initio} technique. We numerically diagonalize a Hamiltonian of the Coulomb interaction expressed in terms of basis states that consist of Slater determinants of first-principles band-structure eigenfunctions over a mesh of points in {ital k} space. The response functions are then computed for spin-density waves, charge-densitymore »« less

Independent amplitude approximations in coupled cluster valence bond theory: Incorporation of 3-electron-pair correlation and application to spin frustration in the low-lying excited states of a ferredoxin-type tetrametallic iron-sulfur cluster

Journal Article Small, David W. ; Head-Gordon, Martin - Journal of Chemical Physics

We report that coupled cluster valence bond (CCVB) is a simple electronic structure method based on a perfect pairing (PP) reference with 2-pair recouplings for strong electron correlation problems. CCVB is spin-pure, size-consistent, and can exactly (in its active space) separate any molecule into atoms for which unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) at dissociation is the sum of the ground state UHF energies of the atoms. However CCVB is far from a complete description of strong correlations. Its first failure to exactly describe spin-recouplings arises at the level of 3 electron pairs, such as the recoupling of 3 triplet oxygen atoms inmore »« less

A first-principles approach to high-T[sub c] superconductivity. I. A consistent one-electron theory of the N-electron problem

Journal Article Fritsche, L - International Journal of Quantum Chemistry; (United States)

The authors review and update a recently developed one-particle theory of N-electron systems that bears a certain resemblance to density functional (DF) theory and has been put forward by the present author. As distinct from DF theory, the new one-particle scheme applies to any N-electron eigenstate including the ground state. For the latter case, the key equations become identical to those familiar from the Kohn-Sham version of DF theory. The theory given here constitutes the basis for a consistent treatment of normal conductivity and superconductivity, which will be discussed in Part II of this article. 15 refs.

Theory of high temperature superconductivity in cuprates. 1: First principles cluster calculations for the electronic structures of CuO{sub 6} octahedron and CuO{sub 5} pyramid

Journal Article Sano, Akihiro ; Kamimura, Hiroshi ; Eto, Mikio - International Journal of Modern Physics B

In this paper the authors first describe the multi-configuration self-consistent field method with configuration interaction (MCSCF-CI) which is a variational method most suitable for strongly-correlated cluster systems. Then the calculated results of CuO{sub 6} cluster embedded in hole-doped La{sub 2{minus}x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4} and of CuO{sub 4} cluster in the electron-doped Nd{sub 2{minus}x}Ce{sub x}CuO{sub 4} are reviewed. Finally the calculated results on the electronic structure of CuO{sub 5} pyramid embedded in the insulating YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 6} and superconducting YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7} are newly presented. In the latter case the authors will clarify an important role of the Cu-O chainmore »« less
