We calculate Tc map in region of weak electron-phonon coupling based on simple phonon spectrum. By using linear-response method and density functional theory, we calculate phonon spectra and Eliashberg functions of simple metals under…
The strong coupling Eliashberg theory plus vertex correction is used to calculate maps of transition temperature (Tc) in parameter-space characterizing superconductivity. Based on these Tc maps, crossover behaviors are found when…
Searching for ambient-pressure conventional superconductors with critical temperatures (TC) higher than 40 K is a key challenge in the field of high-temperature superconductivity, mainly due to lack of efficient and effective models to…
The classification of electron systems according to their topology has been at the forefront of condensed matter research in recent years. It has been found that systems of the same symmetry, previously thought of as equivalent, may in fact…
In cuprate superconductors, a pronounced maximum of superconducting Tc is observed in compounds that have an in-plane Cu-O distance close to ~1.92 Angstroms. On the other hand, direct measurements of the electron-phonon coupling lambda as a…
We show an efficient way to compute the electron-phonon coupling constant, $\lambda$, and the superconducting transition temperature, Tc from first-principles calculations. This approach gives rapid convergence of Tc with respect to the…
Topological superconductors are exotic phases of matter featuring robust surface states that could be leveraged for topological quantum computation. A useful guiding principle for the search of topological superconductors is to relate the…
Research on high-$T_c$ superconductors has generally not focused on analysis of the topological structure of electronic bands in these materials. In this article we collate and discuss several well-known experimental observables that signal…
The superconducting transition temperatures of high-Tc compounds based on copper, iron, ruthenium and certain organic molecules are discovered to be dependent on bond lengths, ionic valences, and Coulomb coupling between electronic bands in…
While topological superconductors are predicted to provide building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum computing, one of the remaining challenges is to find a convenient experimental platform that would allow patterning of circuits. We find…
We address the question of how phonons of various frequencies contribute to the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ of a multi-band superconductor by considering the functional derivatives of $T_c$ with respect to various intraband…
The properties of the known superconductors can be explained with the correlations dominated superconducting mechanism (CSM). The correlations have the spin correlation, the charge correlation and the spin-charge correlation, and their…
The strong-coupling Eliashberg theory plus vertex correction is used to calculate the maps of transition temperature (Tc) in parameter-space characterizing superconductivity. Based on these Tc maps, complex crossover behaviors are found…
Phonon spectrum of many superconducting compounds and, especially, high Tc hydrides, is broad and rather complicated ,because of presence of high frequency optical modes. In order to analyze an interplay of optical and acoustic phonon…
Apparently conflicting phase-sensitive measurements of the order parameter symmetry in the high-T$_c$ superconductors may be explained by regions near surfaces in which the order parameter symmetry is different than in the bulk. These…
Advances in scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveal the presence of superconducting nanoregions well past the bulk thermal transition in strongly disordered superconductors. We use a Monte Carlo tool to capture the spatially differentiated…
To synthesize a new superconductor which has a critical temperature, Tc, exceeding the room temperature, one needs to know what chemical components to start with. This chapter presents analysis of experimental data which allow one to draw a…
It is shown that a correlation between the positions of the $c$-axis longitudinal optic ($LO_c$) phonons and ``notch''-like structures in the $a$-$b$ plane conductivity of high-$T_c$ superconductors results from phonon-mediated interaction…
The search for topological superconductors which support Majorana fermion excitations has been an important topic in condensed matter physics. In this work, we propose a new experimental scheme for engineering topological superconductors.…
We show that the phase information contained in coherent phonon oscillations generated by a laser pulse in a multi- orbital superconductor can be used as an experimental tool to probe super- conductivity and pairing symmetries. The phase…
