Renormalization group study of superconductivity in Nickelates

ORAL

Abstract

Since the discovery of high Tc superconductivity in the cuprates by Bednorz and Mueller, materials bearing similarities to copper oxide compounds have emerged as a contemporary research topic of high interest.
Although LaNiO3/LaAlO3 shares many similarities with the cuprates, it exhibits no superconducting phase down to lowest temperatures.
In this talk we sketch a simple two-band model of a d7 Nickelate-compound and argue why, based on renormalization group calculations competing superconducting ordering propensities make these systems belong to the class of low-Tc materials.
