Multichannel superconductivity of monolayer FeSe on SrTiO${}_3$: Interplay of spin fluctuations and electron-phonon interaction

Abstract

We investigate the effects of electron-phonon coupling, as well as of spin and charge fluctuations on the superconducting state in a single layer of FeSe on SrTiO${}_3$ substrate. These three bosonic mediators of Cooper pairing are treated on equal footing in a multichannel, full-bandwidth, multiband, and anisotropic Eliashberg theory of the interacting state. Our self-consistent calculations show that an s-wave symmetry of the superconducting gap is compatible only with a complete absence of spin fluctuations. When spin fluctuations are present, the sign-changing nodeless d-wave pairing symmetry is always obtained, yet the essential ingredient for explaining the gap magnitude and critical temperature is still the interfacial electron-phonon interaction.
