Superconductivity:
Zero-resistance state of interacting electrons
![Page 3: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Let’s start with some basics:
Consider a system of fermions with k2/2m dispersion and (screened) Coulomb interaction U(r).
Single-particle (fermionic) excitations are described by the poles of the fermionic Green’s function G(k, ω)
In a Fermi liquid, G(k, ω) = Z/(ω – v*F (k-kF))
For free fermions, G(k, ω) = 1/(ω – vF (k-kF))
![Page 4: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Collective two-particle (bosonic) excitations are described by the poles of the vertex function Γ (q,Ω) =fully renormalized interaction
Examples: sound (or zero sound) waves in a Fermi liquid
i0 q v- 1 s +Ω
∝Γ i0 q v s −=Ω Pole in the lower frequency half-plane
If Γ (q,Ω) had a pole in the upper half-plane, perturbations would increase with time and eventually destroy a Fermi liquid
Superconductivity is a two-particle instability of a system of interacting fermions
Superconducting instability is of this kind
![Page 5: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
To first order in the interaction, Γ (q,Ω) is just an antisymmetrized interaction – no poles!
singlet
triplet
Roughly, Γ = -U
![Page 6: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Let’s now include higher-order terms:
Let’s keep total frequency non-zero
For generic momenta, a boring perturbation theory, but if total incoming momenta and frequency are zero, there is a singularity
![Page 7: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Collect all non-singular diagrams into a “bare” vertex
And keep adding singular particle-particle renormalizations
This is a regular pert. theory
Integral equation on the full vertex
L.P. Gorkov
There is a recepe how to proceed
![Page 8: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Take Γ0 = const (Γ0 = - U in the Hubbard model)
For repulsive interaction , Γ0 is negative, and
But if Γ0 >0 (attraction)
Pole in the upper frequency half-plane, i.e., perturbations grow with time and destroy the normal state
This is true only at small total momentum
![Page 9: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Superconductivity from repulsive interaction
How one possibly get Γ0>0 out of repulsion?
![Page 10: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Lev Pitaevskii Lev Landau
What if Γ0 is a function of momentum?
Different angular harmonics decouple
It is sufficient to have Γl,0 >0 for just one value of l
![Page 11: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Kohn-Luttinger mechanism 1965
Walter Kohn
Joaquin Luttinger
Components of the interaction with large l come from large distances. At such distances, bare repulsive interaction occasionally gets over- screened and acquires oscillations [U(r) = cos (2kFr)/r3], often called Friedel oscillations
U(r)
distance, r
![Page 12: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How this actually works?
+ + + +
-U these three cancel out this one gives
θ dependence
Γ0 (θ) =
Components of the screened Coulomb interaction with large l are attractive, independent on the parity of l
Γl>>1 = U2 NF/(2l4) >0
Γ0 (θ) = − U2 Π (2pF cos θ/2)
Particle-hole polarization bubble has a non-analyticity at 2pF (i.e., at θ=0)
Because of non-analyticity, components Γl>>1 decay by a power-law, as 1/l4
Π (2pF +x) − Π (2pF) ∼ x log x
θ k
k’
![Page 13: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Γ1 = U2 (2 log 2 -1) >0
The attraction extends down to l=1, and Γ1 is the largest:
p-wave instability
There is no interference with the bare U because bare U only contributes to s-wave channel
If U=U(q), situation is different, one needs to overcome bare Ul=1
However, Ul=1 ~ p2F, while the second order term ~ pF,
and it definitely wins at low density
Later developments: Fay&Layzer, Kagan&A.C…
![Page 14: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
A few years later it was found that l=1 for 3He. Tc (l=1) ~ 10-3 EF ~ 10-3 K (Tc ~3 mK in 3He)
KL obtained Tc ~ EF exp [-2.5 l4], substituted l=2, and found Tc~ 10-17 K
Kohn and Luttinger applied their result to 3He
At that time (1965) the general belief was that the pairing in 3He must be d-wave (l=2)
![Page 15: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Kohn-Luttinger effect in 2D
Γ0 (θ) = − U2 Π (2pF cos θ/2)
I will focus on 2D systems for the rest of the lectures
Π (q < 2pF) = m/(2π) = const
No superconductivity at this stage

Two ways to extend the analysis:
I. Go to higher order in U (U3)
+ + + =

Two ways to extend the analysis:
To order U3

Γl>>1 ∼ U3 N2F/l2 >0
Attraction again persists down to l=1, and Γl=1 is the largest

For the rest of the lectures I will explore KL idea that the effective pairing interaction is different from a bare repulsive U due to screening by other fermions, and it may have attractive components in some channels
•cuprates • doped graphene
• Fe-pnictides
Each case will represent different lattice version of KL physics

Summary of Kohn-Luttinger physics:
d-wave (dx2-y2 ) pairing in the cuprates d+id (dx2-y2 + dxy ) in doped graphene s+- in Fe-pnictides
At weak coupling, a fermionic system may undergo a superconducting instability, despite that the interaction is repulsive. The instability is never an ordinary s-wave
![Page 50: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
This story is a little bit too good to be true.
In all three cases, we assumed that bare interaction is a Hubbard U, in which case, in a relevant channel Γ =0 to order U and becomes positive (attractive) to order U2
In reality, to order U, Γ = -Usmall + Ularge small (large) is a momentum transfer
For any realistic interaction, Usmall > Ularge
Then bare Γ<0, and the second order term has to overcome it

Houston, we have a problem
![Page 52: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
One possibility is to abandon weak coupling (next lecture – spin fluctuation induced pairing )
Another is to keep couplings as weak, but see whether we can additionally enhance KL terms (this is what we will do now)
![Page 53: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
The idea is that, if superconductivity competes with other potential instabilities, like SDW or CDW, there may be additional enhancement of the pairing interaction at large momentum transfer, and simultaneous reduction (and even sign change) of the pairing interaction at a small momentum transfer
![Page 54: University of Wisconsin - National MagLabWeak coupling theories of unconventional superconductivity (I) Theory Winter School, Tallahassee, January 7 2013 Andrey Chubukov University](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071411/6106d0e6b718703d7367b23c/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Conclusions:
The issue is the pairing by electron-electron interaction
I. Kohn-Luttinger mechanism:
p-wave pairing for isotropic dispersion d-wave (dx2-y2 ) pairing in the cuprates d+id (dx2-y2 + dxy ) in doped graphene s+- in Fe-pnictides
II. If first-order (bare) interaction in these channels is repulsive, SC is still possible when fluctuations in the density-wave channel are comparable to SC fluctuations (SC vertex is pushed up due to interaction with SDW)
For on-cite Hubbard interaction
