Abstract

Within the framework of kinetic-energy-driven superconductivity, the asymmetric doping dependence of superconductivity between the hole- and electron-doped triangular-lattice superconductors has been studied. It is shown that although the superconducting transition temperature has a dome-shaped doping dependence for both the hole- and electron-doped triangular-lattice superconductors, superconductivity appears over a wide doping of range in the hole-doped case, while it only exists in a narrow range of the doping in the electron-doped side. Moreover, the maximum superconducting transition temperature around the optimal doping in the electron-doped triangular-lattice superconductors is lower than that of the hole-doped counterparts. The theory also shows that the asymmetric doping dependence of superconductivity between the hole- and electron-doped cases may be a common feature for a doped Mott insulator.
