Outline of Research at the Start

ニッケル酸化物における超伝導は、銅酸化物・鉄系化合物に続く新たな高温超伝導物質群を形成することが期待され、固体物性の分野で現在最も注目されている物質である。本研究では、第一原理計算と電子相関を正確に取り扱える多体手法を組み合わせた最新の理論を用いて、ニッケル酸化物超伝導体における相図の全貌を明らかにする。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

There are many discussions about various phases due to multiple mechanisms in unconventional superconductors, typical examples of correlated electron systems. In this study, we evaluated the phase diagram of the recently discovered infinite-layer nickelate superconductor, considering the charge transfer due to the multi-orbital nature. We have also extended our method to multi-orbital systems. We explained the transition temperature quantitatively also for the newly discovered five-layer nickelate superconductor.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

強相関電子系において定量的な物性計算を可能とすることは、物質依存性の理解・ひいては機能の向上を目指すための基盤となり得る。その意味で今回ニッケル酸化物において実験と定量的に整合する転移温度が得られたことは意義が大きい。また、5層系のニッケル酸化物の計算においては、強相関効果による電荷の移動が超伝導発現に影響を与えていることが示され、本研究で行った第一原理計算と強相関手法の組み合わせの重要性を確認することが出来た。
