AI总结:

本研究基于类Kohn-Luttinger机制的随机相近似框架,探讨了重掺杂单层石墨烯的超导性,预测Tb掺杂可产生Tc达600 mK的稳健d+id拓扑超导,并发现改变晶格对称性的掺杂剂不利于d波态。

摘要:

石墨烯中超导性(SC)的存在似乎已在扭曲和非扭曲多层结构中得到证实。然而,作为其结构单元的单层石墨烯(SLG)是否也能产生SC仍是一个悬而未决的问题。早期理论工作预测,当SLG掺杂至其van Hove奇点时,可能成为由电子相互作用驱动的手性d波超导体,但诸如d波SC能否在实验中观测到的强能带重整化下存活、其对掺杂源的鲁棒性,或其是否会在任何合理的临界温度(Tc)下出现等问题一直难以回答,部分原因在于模型参数的不确定性。在本研究中,我们采用基于类Kohn-Luttinger机制的随机相近似框架来研究重掺杂SLG中的SC。我们预测,在Tb掺杂的SLG中可能出现稳健的d+id拓扑SC,其Tc高达600 mK。我们还研究了通过采用其他掺杂剂(如Li或Cs)实现d波SC的可能性。结构模型源自对Tb掺杂石墨烯的角分辨光电子能谱测量以及对Cs和Li掺杂的第一性原理计算。我们发现,改变SLG晶格对称性的掺杂剂对d波态是不利的。本文预测的Tb掺杂SLG中d波SC的稳定性,可为指导未来旨在探索单层石墨烯拓扑超导性的实验工作提供有价值的见解。

英文摘要:

The existence of superconductivity (SC) in graphene appears to be established in both twisted and non-twisted multilayers. However, whether their building block, single-layer graphene (SLG), can also host SC remains an open question. Earlier theoretical works predicted that SLG could become a chiral d-wave superconductor driven by electronic interactions when doped to its van Hove singularity, but questions such as whether the d-wave SC survives the strong band renormalizations seen in experiments, its robustness against the source of doping, or if it will occur at any reasonable critical temperature (Tc) have remained difficult to answer, in part due to uncertainties in model parameters. In this study, we adopt a random-phase approximation framework based on a Kohn-Luttinger-like mechanism to investigate SC in heavily-doped SLG. We predict that robust d+id topological SC could arise in SLG doped by Tb, with a Tc up to 600 mK. We also investigate the possibility of realizing d-wave SC by employing other dopants, such as Li or Cs. The structural models have been derived from angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements on Tb-doped graphene and first-principles calculations for Cs and Li doping. We find that dopants that change the lattice symmetry of SLG are detrimental to the d-wave state. The stability of the d-wave SC predicted here in Tb-doped SLG could provide a valuable insight for guiding future experimental efforts aimed at exploring topological superconductivity in monolayer graphene.
