Exchange and Spin-Fluctuation Mechanisms of Superconductivity in Cuprates.

A microscopic theory of superconductivity is considered in the framework of the Hubbard p–d model for the CuO[sub 2] plane. The Dyson equation is derived in the nonintersecting diagram approximation using the projection technique for the matrix Green function of the Hubbard operator. The solution of the equation for the superconducting gap shows that interband transitions for Hubbard subbands lead to antiferromagnetic exchange pairing as in the t–J model, while intraband transitions additionally lead to spin-fluctuation pairing of the d-wave type. The calculated dependences of the superconducting transition temperature on the hole concentration and of the gap on the wave vector are in qualitative agreement with experiments. © 2003 MAIK “Nauka / Interperiodica”.
