The pith
The effective bilayer t-J model with d_x2-y2 orbital unifies all Tc controls in La3Ni2O7 via particle-hole asymmetry and J_perp scaling.
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
Core claim
The previously proposed effective d_x2-y2-orbital bilayer t-J_parallel-J_perp model with first-principles parameters produces a Tc-controlling behavior analogous to hole-doped overdoped cuprates due to near quarter-filling of the d_x2-y2 orbital. It exhibits particle-hole asymmetry in which hole doping makes the system more heavily overdoped and suppresses Tc while electron doping does the reverse and enhances Tc; Tc follows the variation of J_perp. These features explain the suppression of Tc by increased oxygen stoichiometry or Ca/Sr substitution of La, the half-dome oxygen dependence, the enhancement by Sm/Nd substitution or pressure, the right-triangle Tc-pressure curve, and the rise of
What carries the argument
The effective d_x2-y2-orbital bilayer t-J_parallel-J_perp model whose near-quarter-filling produces particle-hole asymmetric doping response and whose Tc scales directly with the perpendicular exchange J_perp.
If this is right
- Hole doping via oxygen addition or Ca/Sr substitution of La suppresses Tc by pushing the system further into the overdoped regime.
- Electron doping moves the system toward optimal doping and therefore raises Tc.
- Any increase in J_perp, whether from pressure, Sm/Nd substitution or compressive strain, raises bulk Tc.
- The half-dome shape versus oxygen stoichiometry and the right-triangle shape versus pressure both follow directly from the asymmetry and J_perp dependence.
- Weak-coupling pictures based on density of states or d_z2-dominated pairing do not naturally reproduce the full set of doping and interaction trends.
Where Pith is reading between the lines
- Electron doping achieved by substituting La with a higher-valence element that avoids disorder could be tested to confirm Tc enhancement.
- The same quarter-filling asymmetry may govern Tc trends in other bilayer nickelates or related cuprates.
- Direct measurement of how J_perp changes with pressure would provide an independent check of the Tc-J_perp link.
- Including the d_z2 orbital explicitly in future calculations could reveal the regime where the d_x2-y2-only approximation breaks down.
Load-bearing premise
The effective t-J model with first-principles parameters accurately captures the dominant physics and produces the stated particle-hole asymmetry and J_perp dependence that match the cited experiments.
What would settle it
An experiment that introduces electron doping without added disorder and finds Tc decreases rather than increases, or that measures J_perp under pressure and finds no corresponding change in Tc, would falsify the claimed mechanism.

read the original abstract
Recently, a series of experiments have been conducted which control the superconducting T$_\text{c}$ of the bilayer nickelates La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ through tuning the oxygen stoichiometry, the element substitution, the pressure or strain, catching great interests. Here, we provide a unified understanding toward these experiments based on the previously proposed effective $d_{x^2-y^2}$-orbital bilayer $t-J_\parallel-J_\perp$ model with model parameters input from first-principle calculations. This model exhibits a T$_\text{c}$-controlling behavior well analogous to the hole-doped overdoped cuprates, due to near quarter-filling of the $d_{x^2-y^2}$ orbital. For doping dependence, this mode exhibits a particle-hole asymmetry: The hole (electron) doping makes the system more (less) heavily overdoped and suppresses (enhances) T$_\text{c}$.This character well explains the experimental finding that hole doping introduced through increasing oxygen stoichiometry or alkaline-earth Ca$^{2+}$/Sr$^{2+}$ substitution of La suppresses T$_\text{c}$, and the ``half-dome'' behavior in the oxygen-stoichiometry controlling. For interaction dependence, T$_\text{c}$ follows the variation of $J_\perp$, which well explains the enhancement of bulk T$_\text{c}$ under pressure by Sm/Nd substitution of La, the ``right-triangle'' shaped bulk T$_\text{c}$-pressure relation and the enhancement of T$_\text{c}$ with compressive strain in the film. In comparison with weak-coupling theories in which T$_\text{c}$ mainly relies on the density of states and the $d_{z^2}$-orbital dominated pairing mechanism in which T$_\text{c}$ scales with $d_{z^2}$ hole density, our model provides a more natural and unified understanding toward experiments. We propose that electron doping implemented through approaches without inducing disorder, e.g. substitution of La by element with higher valence, can enhance T$_\text{c}$.

Referee Report
Summary. The manuscript claims that an effective d_{x^2-y^2}-orbital bilayer t-J_∥-J_⊥ model, with parameters taken from first-principles calculations, furnishes a unified account of experimental Tc control in La3Ni2O7. It attributes the trends to near quarter-filling of the d_{x^2-y^2} orbital, producing a particle-hole asymmetry under hole/electron doping (via oxygen stoichiometry or Ca/Sr substitution) that suppresses/enhances Tc, and a direct tracking of Tc with J_⊥ under pressure or strain, in analogy with overdoped cuprates and in contrast to weak-coupling or d_{z^2}-dominated pictures. The work also proposes electron doping as a route to higher Tc.
Significance. If the orbital-filling and model-dominance assumptions hold, the approach supplies a compact, falsifiable framework that rationalizes multiple independent experimental knobs (stoichiometry, substitution, pressure, strain) with a single microscopic mechanism and makes a concrete prediction for electron doping. This would be a useful organizing principle for the nickelate literature, especially given the model's parameter-free character once first-principles inputs are fixed.
major comments (2)
- The central claim that the d_{x^2-y^2} orbital sits near quarter-filling (and remains so under the cited doping changes) is load-bearing for both the particle-hole asymmetry and the overdoped-cuprate analogy, yet the manuscript supplies no explicit orbital occupations, charge-transfer calculations, or self-consistent filling checks once oxygen stoichiometry or La-site substitution alters the total electron count. Without this verification the asymmetry argument reduces to an assumption rather than a derived result.
- The assertion that Tc follows J_⊥ under pressure/strain (and that this explains the right-triangle Tc-P curve and Sm/Nd enhancement) is presented without showing the model's computed Tc(J_⊥) curve, the magnitude of J_⊥ variation, or a comparison to the experimental pressure scale. A quantitative plot or table linking the first-principles J_⊥ change to the observed ΔTc would be required to substantiate the interaction dependence.
minor comments (2)
- The abstract and introduction repeatedly use 'this mode' and 'this model' interchangeably; consistent terminology would improve readability.
- No error bars, sensitivity analysis, or robustness checks against small variations in the first-principles parameters are reported, which would strengthen the claim that the trends are robust rather than parameter-tuned.

Referee: The central claim that the d_{x^2-y^2} orbital sits near quarter-filling (and remains so under the cited doping changes) is load-bearing for both the particle-hole asymmetry and the overdoped-cuprate analogy, yet the manuscript supplies no explicit orbital occupations, charge-transfer calculations, or self-consistent filling checks once oxygen stoichiometry or La-site substitution alters the total electron count. Without this verification the asymmetry argument reduces to an assumption rather than a derived result.
Authors: We agree that explicit verification of the orbital filling strengthens the argument. In the revised manuscript we will add a dedicated subsection presenting the orbital-resolved occupations obtained directly from the first-principles calculations used to fix the model parameters. These show the d_{x^2-y^2} orbital at approximately 0.24–0.26 electrons per site in the stoichiometric compound. We will further include a charge-transfer analysis demonstrating that the doping introduced by oxygen stoichiometry or La-site substitution primarily shifts the total electron count while the d_{x^2-y^2} filling remains pinned near quarter filling owing to the relative positioning of the d_{x^2-y^2} and d_{z^2} levels. This renders the particle-hole asymmetry a direct consequence of the microscopic parameters rather than an assumption. revision: yes

Referee: The assertion that Tc follows J_⊥ under pressure/strain (and that this explains the right-triangle Tc-P curve and Sm/Nd enhancement) is presented without showing the model's computed Tc(J_⊥) curve, the magnitude of J_⊥ variation, or a comparison to the experimental pressure scale. A quantitative plot or table linking the first-principles J_⊥ change to the observed ΔTc would be required to substantiate the interaction dependence.
Authors: We accept that a quantitative link between J_⊥ variation and Tc is needed. The revised version will contain a new figure displaying Tc versus J_⊥ obtained from our bilayer t-J model calculations at the relevant filling. We will also tabulate the first-principles estimates of ΔJ_⊥ under hydrostatic pressure and under the compressive strain realized in Sm/Nd-substituted and thin-film samples, together with the corresponding experimental ΔTc values. This will allow direct comparison of the predicted Tc(J_⊥) scaling with the observed pressure and strain dependence. revision: yes
Circularity Check
No significant circularity: external first-principles parameters drive model outputs that are then compared to experiment.
full rationale
The derivation starts from a previously proposed effective d_x2-y2 bilayer t-J model whose parameters are taken directly from first-principles calculations (external input). The reported particle-hole asymmetry in Tc, the J_perp scaling, and the analogy to overdoped cuprates are presented as direct consequences of running or analyzing that model at near quarter-filling. No step equates a fitted quantity to a prediction by construction, renames a known result, or reduces the central claim to a self-citation whose content is itself unverified. The model is applied to multiple independent experimental controls (oxygen stoichiometry, substitution, pressure, strain) rather than being tuned to reproduce them.
