Feshbach shape resonance for high Tc superconductivity in superlattices of nanotubes

PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (A) APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE, Issue 11 2006
Antonio Bianconi
Abstract The case of a Feshbach shape resonance in the pairing mechanism for high Tc superconductivity in a crystalline lattice of doped metallic nanotubes is described. The superlattice of doped metallic nanotubes provides a superconductor with a strongly asymmetric gap. The disparity and different spatial locations of the wave functions of electrons in different subbands at the Fermi level should suppress the single electron impurity interband scattering giving multiband superconductivity in the clean limit. The Feshbach resonances will arise from the component single-particle wave functions out of which the electron pair wave function is constructed: pairs of wave functions which are time inverse of each other. The Feshbach shape resonance increases the critical temperature by tuning the chemical potential at the Lifshitz electronic topological transition (ETT) where the Fermi surface of one of the bands changes from the one dimensional (1D) to the two dimensional (2D) topology (1D/2D ETT).

Obtaining positions and widths of scattering resonances from a complex multiconfigurational self-consistent field state using the M1 method

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF QUANTUM CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2010
Kousik Samanta
Abstract We present a complex multiconfigurational self-consistent field (CMCSCF)-based approach to investigate electron-atom scattering resonances. It is made possible by the use of second quantization algebra adapted for biorthogonal spin orbitals, which has been applied to develop a quadratically convergent CMCSCF method. To control the convergence to the correct CMCSCF stationary point, a modified step-length control algorithm is introduced. Convergence to a tolerance of 1.0 × 10,10 a.u. for the energy gradient is found to be typically within 10 iterations or less. A method involving the first block of the M matrix defined in the multiconfigurational spin tensor electron propagator method (MCSTEP) based on the CMCSCF reference state has been implemented to investigate 2P Be, shape resonances. The position and width of these resonances have been calculated for different complete active space choices. The wide distribution of the position and width of the resonance reported in the literature is explained by the existence of two distinct resonances which are close in energy. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Phenol, chlorobenzene and chlorophenol isomers: resonant states and dissociative electron attachment,

RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY, Issue 20 2003
Roustem V. Khatymov
This paper reports a study of resonant dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to the phenol, chlorobenzene, p- , m- , and o- chlorophenol molecules. On the basis of spectroscopic and thermochemical approaches the resonant states of the molecular negative ions (NIs) and the structures of some dissociative decay products are assigned. In the electron energy range up to 3,eV, DEA processes are determined by the two 2[,*]-shape resonances resulting mainly in formation of [MH], and/or Cl, ions. At higher electron energies the energy correlation between peaks in the negative ion effective yield curves and bands of UV spectra allowed identification of the core-excited resonances. The peculiarities of Cl, ion formation and the vibrational fine structure on the effective yield curves of the [MH], ions are discussed. The mass spectrometric procedures for measurement of relative cross sections for NI formation are described. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source]
