Correlation between T_c and the Cu 4s level reveals the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity
Z. D. Dimitrov, S. K. Varbev, K. J. Omar +3
Band structure trends in hole-doped cuprates and correlations with T_c are interpreted within the s--d exchange mechanism of high-T_c superconductivity. The dependence of T_c on th…
Bernoulli Potential, Hall Constant and Cooper Pairs Effective Masses in Disordered BCS Superconductors
T. Mishonov, E. Penev
It is analyzed what fundamental new information for the properties of the superconductors can be obtained by systematic investigation of the Bernoulli effect. It is shown that it i…
Temperature dependence of the specific heat and the penetration depth of anisotropic-gap BCS superconductors for a factorizable pairing potential
T. M. Mishonov, S. I. Klenov, E. S. Penev
An explicit expression for the temperature dependence of the specific heat of clean anisotropic-gap superconductors is derived within the weak-coupling BCS approximation. The speci…
Influence of the van Hove singularity on the specific heat jump in BCS superconductors
T. Mishonov, S. -L. Drechsler, E. Penev
Within the weak-coupling BCS scheme we derive a general form of the coefficients in the Ginzburg-Landau expansion of the free energy of a superconductor for the case of a Fermi lev…
Specific Heat Discontinuity in Impure Two-Band Superconductors
Todor M. Mishonov, Evgeni S. Penev, Joseph O. Indekeu +1
The Ginzburg-Landau coefficients, and the jump of the specific heat are calculated for a disordered two-band superconductor. We start with the analysis of a more general case arbit…
Superconductivity of overdoped cuprates: the modern face of the ancestral two-electron exchange
T. M. Mishonov, J. O. Indekeu, E. S. Penev
The single-site two-electron exchange amplitude J_sd between the Cu 4s and Cu 3d_{x^2-y^2} states is found to be the pairing mechanism of high-T_c overdoped cuprates. The nonintera…
