Av. Semenov, The simple generalized BCS-type model for the acoustic plasmon induced d-wave superconductivity in high-T-c layered cuprate compounds, INT J MOD B, 12(29-31), 1998, pp. 3141-3145
A simple analytically treated model is presented for high-T-c superconducti
vity in layered cuprate compounds. This model assumes a cylindrical Fermi-s
urface with circular cross-section, but anisotropic Fermi-velocity (density
of states), which is approximated by a steplike function on azimuth angle.
The system under these assumptions is shown to support in the long wavelen
gth limit collective charge-density excitations with acoustic spectrum (aco
ustic plasmons), which suppress the Coulomb interelectron repulsion for sma
ll transferred momenta. This result leads to the second essential feature o
f the proposed model: besides the standard assumptions of the BCS scheme th
e effective potential of interelectron interaction is characterized by addi
tional step-like dependence on the absolute value of two-dimensional transf
erred quasimomenta, The effective constants of the Cooper pairing in anisot
ropic s- and d-wave channels are evaluated. It is shown, that the plasmon m
echanism gives rise to the pairing in the d-wave channel, despite the fully
isotropic (in two dimensions) model potential. The Umklapp processes are t
aken into account and are shown to increase the pairing constants.
