Possible Enhancement of Superconductivity in Ambient-Pressure La₃Ni₂O₇ Thin Film
read the original abstract
As an unconventional superconducting system capable of reaching 60 K under ambient pressure, the La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ thin film superconductor has recently become a focal point in the field of superconductivity, calling for further theoretical exploration of its possible pairing mechanisms. In this work, we employ the fluctuation exchange (FLEX) approximation to systematically analyze the superconducting properties of a previously proposed two-site, two-orbital model for the La$_3$Ni$2$O$7$ thin film in the weakly correlated regime, with particular emphasis on its dependence on hole doping. Through a more detailed examination of the Fermi-surface topology, we find that when a $\delta$ pocket composed of the $d_{z^{2}}$ antibonding orbital emerges near the $\Gamma$ point, its nesting with the $\gamma$ pocket, together with the nesting between the $\alpha$ and $\beta$ pockets, leads to a mutual enhancement of $s{\pm}$-wave pairing at the corresponding wave vector. Furthermore, we propose that this nesting-driven enhancement of spin-fluctuation-induced pairing may provide a viable mechanism for enhancing superconductivity.
