Hole pairing and phonon dynamics in generalized 2D t-J-Holstein models

The formation of hole pairs in the planar t-J model is studied in the presence of independent {\it dynamic} vibrations of the in-plane oxygen atoms. In-plane (breathing modes) and out-of-plane (buckling modes) displacements are considered. We find strong evidences in favor of a stabilization of the two hole bound pair by out-of-plane vibrations of the in-plane oxygens. On the contrary, the breathing modes weaken the binding energy of the hole pair. These results are discussed in the context of the superconducting cuprates.
