Impact of $e-e$ interactions on the superfluid density of dirty superconductors
Abstract
Landau's theory of the Fermi liquid is adapted to analyze the impact of electron-electron () interactions on the deficit of the superfluid density in dirty superconducting electron systems in which the damping of single-particle excitations exceeds the zero temperature BCS gap . In the dirty strong-coupling limit , the formula derived for is shown to coincide with the well-known empirical Uemura relation provided pair-breaking contributions are nonexistent. The roles of the crystal lattice and magnetic pair-breaking effects in the observed decline of the zero-temperature superfluid density in overdoped LSCO compounds are also discussed. Our method is also applied to elucidation of results from the pioneering experimental studies performed recently by Bozovi\`c and collaborators in overdoped LSCO compounds.
