Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations and Weak-Coupling Approximations for the Three-Band Hubbard Model
Summary
We study the three-band Hubbard model for the cuprate superconductors using Quantum Monte Carlo simulations and the fluctuation exchange approximation including a self-consistent many-body renormalization of the single-particle propagator. The energy dispersion of the low-lying one-particle excitations is in very good agreement with spectroscopic measurements for a hole doping concentration δ = 0.25 of the CuO2 planes. At the same doping, we examine the spin susceptibility yielding a non-ordered phase with short-range incommensurate fluctuations near the antiferromagnetic wave vector. In the superconducting regime, the interaction vertex for the pairing correlation function in the extended s-wave channel shows a maximum for δ = 0.20, resembling the dependence of transition temperature Tc on doping.
