We present a self-consistent approach to deal with the pairing-fluctuation effects in quasi-two-dimensional superconducting systems. Besides the Cooper pairs in the Bose-Einstein condensate, there are pairs occupying the excited states,…
Fully occupied or unoccupied bands in a solid are often considered inert and irrelevant to a material's low-energy properties. But the discovery of enhanced superconductivity in heavily electron-doped FeSe-derived superconductors poses…
We study the time evolution of a system of fermions with pairing interactions at a finite temperature. The dynamics is triggered by an abrupt increase of the BCS coupling constant. We show that if initially the fermions are in a normal…
