We study the peculiarities of coherency in the superconductivity of two-orbital system. The superconducting phase transition is caused here by the on-site intra-orbital attractions (negative-U Hubbard model) and interorbital pair-transfer interaction. The dependencies of critical and non-critical correlation lengths on interaction channels and band llings are analyzed.
A two-band model of MgB2 superconductivity is developed. It exploits repulsive σ-π interband coupling besides the σ-intraband electron-phonon attraction and Coulomb interaction. With an adjustable set of parameters the observed dependences of the gaps, specific heat and second critical magnetic field on temperature, furthermore Tc vs. Al-doping, and the Tc isotope effect exponent are reproduced without further fittings. The unconventional MgB2 superconductivity can be ascribed to the specific band structure and the role of electron interactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
