Theory of pairing in the Cu-O Plane: Three-Band Hubbard Model and Beyond
نویسندگان
چکیده
We calculate the effective interaction Weff between two holes added to the ground state of the repulsive three-band Hubbard model. To make contact with Cooper theory and with earlier Hubbard model cluster studies, we first use a perturbative canonical transformation, to generate a two-body Hamiltonian. Then, we extend the results to all orders. The approach is exact in principle, and we obtain a close analytic expression including explicitly the effects of all virtual transitions to 4-body intermediate states. Our scheme naturally lends itself to embody off-site, inter-planar, phonon-mediated and other interactions which are not considered in the Hubbard model but may well be important. The result depends qualitatively on the symmetry of the two-hole state: 1B2 and 1A2 pairs are special, because the bare holes do not interact by the on-site repulsion (W=0 pairs). The effective interaction in these channels is attractive and leads to a Cooper-like instability of the Fermi liquid; however Weff is repulsive for Triplet pairs. Bound two-hole states of the same nature were reported earlier in small cluster calculations by exact diagonalisation methods; only symmetric clusters are good models of the plane. Once Weff is known, the pair eigenfunction is determined by an integral equation. We present numerical estimates of the binding energy |∆| of the pairs, which is in the physically interesting range of tens of meV if unscreened on-site repulsion parameters are used.

Pairing in the Three-Band Hubbard Model of the Cu-O Plane
By a canonical transformation of the three-band Hubbard model, we introduce an effective Hamiltonian for the propagation of two holes doped into the ground state of the Cu-O plane. When the pair belongs to the B2 or A2 Irreducible Representations of the C4v Group, the bare holes do not interact by the on-site repulsion; the effective interaction between the dressed holes is obtained analyticall...

With the use of the Hubbard model bound hole states in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6+x are studied. For the parameters of this crystal the exchange interaction between the spin-carrying chain ion O − and Cu − O plane sites is shown to ensure the formation of a large ferromagnetically ordered clusters around holes in the plane.
متن کاملPairing Mechanism from Repulsive Interactions in Symmetric 2 d Models
In two-dimensional systems possessing a high degree of symmetry, the repulsive electron-electron interaction produces a pairing force; the mechanism would fail in the presence of strong distortions. We have studied this in the one-band and three-band Hubbard Model. From partially occupied orbitals one obtains pair eigenstates of the Hamiltonian with no on-site repulsion (the W = 0 pairs). The c...

We study correlation effects in a three-band extended Hubbard model of Cu–O planes within the 1/N mean field approach, in the infinite U limit. We investigate the emerging phase diagram and discuss the low energy scales associated with each region. With increasing direct overlap between oxygen orbitals, tpp > 0, the solution displays a band crossing which, for an extended range of parameters, l...
