Superconductivity in Organic Compounds with Pseudo-Triangular Lattice
We study spin fluctuation (SF) mediated superconductivity (SC) in a
half-filled square lattice Hubbard model with the transfer matrices -t between
nearest neighbor sites and -t' between a half of next nearest neighbor sites
neighboring along only one of the directions, considering application of
this model to organic kappa-(BEDT-TTF)2X compounds. Varying the t'/t value from
0 to 1, one can interpolate between a square and an equilateral triangular
lattice, the latter giving frustration to antiferromagnetically (AF) coupled
spin systems. Within the fluctuation exchange (FLEX) approximation, we
calculate chi(q,omega), Tc and the SC order parameter for various model
parameter values and find that both AF and SC are suppressed as one approaches
the frustration geometry or |(t'/t)-1| \to 0. The SC phase, however, extends
beyond the AF phase boundary fairly close to t'/t=1 for realistic U/t values.
The order parameter is of x2-y2-type for t'/t1.Comment: 4 pages, 5 eps figures, to appear in J. Phys. Soc. Jp
