Spin-fluctuation mechanism of superconductivity in cuprates

Abstract

The theory of superconductivity within the t-J model, as relevant for cuprates, is developed. It is based on the equations of motion for projected fermionic operators and the mode-coupling approximation for the self-energy matrix. The dynamical spin susceptibility at various doping is considered as an input, extracted from experiments. The analysis shows that the superconductivity onset is dominated by the spin-fluctuation contribution. We show that T_c is limited by the spin-fluctuation scale $\Gamma$ and shows a pronounced dependence on the next-nearest-neighbor hopping t'. The latter can offer an explanation for the variation of T_c among different families of cuprates.
